<p>Here is an example of a table created from a database query result. The
table class will automatically generate the headings based on the table
names (or you can set your own headings using the <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">set_heading()</span></tt>
method described in the class reference below).</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">load</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">library</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'table'</span><span class="p">);</span>

</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Here is an example showing how you might create a table using discrete
parameters:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">load</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">library</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'table'</span><span class="p">);</span>

</div>
<p>Here is the same example, except instead of individual parameters,
arrays are used:</p>
<div class="highlight-ci"><div class="highlight"><pre><span class="nv">$this</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">load</span><span class="o">-></span><span class="na">library</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s1">'table'</span><span class="p">);</span>

<div class="admonition note">

elements that alternate with each iteration of the row data.</p>
</div>
<p>You are NOT required to submit a complete template. If you only need to
change parts of the layout you can simply submit those elements. In this
example, only the table opening tag is being changed:</p>
