Question

I need a feature that EditTablePlugin doesn't have (yet). Is there a combination of tools that can provde me a workaround?

I want people to be able to insert a new row into a table at any location (not just at the end). Iwant this to be possible without going into the Edit window and using TWiki markup.

If possible, it would be nice to move a row to anotherposition in the table as well.

The application is a troubleshooting page with a set of steps to be done in order. If the person filling in the page realizes, "oh wait, I need to insert something between the current steps 4 and 5" they need to be able to do this in a very simple and low-risk manner. Clicking Edit is neither. :-(

Environment

TWiki version: 4
TWiki plugins: DefaultPlugin, EditTable, EmptyPlugin, InterwikiPlugin
Server OS:  
Web server:  
Perl version:

Did you look at EditRowPlugin ?

Yep. It's useful to edt one roow at a time, but that plugin (being based on EDITTABLE) still can't add a new row in the middle of a table.

Seems to be answered...

the answer being that it isn't possible?

Guess you never really had a deeper look at EditRowPlugin, right? Otherwise you would have seen that it actually does provide the features you want. One can add a new row in the middle of a table and a selected row can be moved up or down within the table. So the answer is: use EditRowPlugin and provide feedback to its developer (CC) for further enhancements.
