Question

I would first like to know how I can generate tables with formats like the ones on this site. I have the latest Twiki version, but the tables I create do not have the alternating gray shaded background colors. Nor do have column titles that are automatically linked for sorting.

Second, I want to create a table that lists the latest updates to the website. My code is below:

| *File* | *Project* | *Author* | *Date* |
%SEARCH{ "\.*" web="all" regex="on" nosearch="on" nototal="on" order="modified" reverse="on"  format="| [[$topic]] | $web | $wikiusername  | $date |" limit="10" }%

Each "project" is a different web so the search result is not chronological but in the order that webs were searched. So the search result would list the latest files updated for one web and then move on to the next web. Is there a way to load the search results with the date sorted? Thanks.

Answer

To display tables like the one above I use the TablePlugin. I don't know if there is a way to define a default layout like this. There is a nice page showing colors and their corresponding codes: StandardColors and StandardColorsImproved.

Use initsort and initdirection: (edit the topic to see how; example only searches three webs for speed)
