Starting from version 1.0 , connectors can be used to define header of grid, it can be done in automatic and detailed modes

require("../../codebase/grid_connector.php");
$grid = new GridConnector($res);
 
$grid->set_config(new GridConfiguration());
 
$grid->render_table("grid50000","item_id","item_nm,item_cd");

Grid will use list of fields - as labels for the columns. It can be combined with short render_table form as

$grid->set_config(new GridConfiguration());
$grid->render_table("grid50000");

In such case grid headers will be created for all columns in the related table

If you want to have automatic server side sorting and filtering for all columns , you can use

$grid->set_config(new GridConfiguration(true));
$grid->render_table("grid50000","item_id","item_nm,item_cd");

In manual mode you need to define headers and their parameters by php command. Names of commands mimic names of js commands, with similar functionality.

$config = new GridConfiguration();
$config->setHeader(array("column 1","column 2"));
$config->setColTypes(array("ro","ed"));
 
$grid->set_config($config);
 
$grid->render_table("grid50000","item_id","item_nm,item_cd");

For all below commands, parameter is an array of values or comma separated string, delimited by headerDelimiter (default is ,).

// column labels
$config->setHeader($names);
// column types
$config->setColTypes($typeStr);
// column IDs
$config->setColIds($idsStr);
// column width, int values, will be processed as size in pixels
$config->setInitWidths($widths);
// column width, int value, will be threated as size in percents
$config->setInitWidthsP($widths);
// column align
$config->setColAlign($alStr);
// column sorting type
$config->setColSorting($sortStr);
// column color
$config->setColColor($colorStr);
// visibility of column 
$config->setColHidden($hidStr);

For setColHidden command values must be

• true if column should be hidden
• false otherwise

$config->attachHeader($values, $styles = null);

The parameters of this method are:

• array of header names or string of header names, delimited by headerDelimiter (default is ,)
• array of header styles or string of header styles, delimited by headerDelimiter (default is ,)

$config->attachFooter($values, $styles = null);

The parameters of this method are:

• array of footer names or string of footer names, delimited by headerDelimiter (default is ,)
• array of footer styles or string of footer styles, delimited by headerDelimiter (default is ,)

Sets symbol or several symbols which will be used as delimiter in string arguments.

$config->setHeaderDelimiter($headerDelimiter);

require_once("../config.php");
$res=mysql_connect($mysql_server,$mysql_user,$mysql_pass);
mysql_select_db($mysql_db);
 
require("../../codebase/grid_connector.php");
$grid = new GridConnector($res);
 
$config = new GridConfiguration();
 
	$config->setHeader("Item Name,Item CD");
	$config->attachHeader("Item Name Test,#rspan");
	$config->attachFooter("Item Name,Item CD", Array("background-color: #ff0000;", "background-color: #00ff00;"));
	$config->attachFooter("Item Name Test,#rspan", "background-color: #0000ff;color:white;");
	$config->setColIds("col1,col2");
	$config->setInitWidths('120,*');
	$config->setColSorting("connector,connector");
	$config->setColColor("null,#dddddd");
	$config->setColHidden("false,false");
	$config->setColTypes("ro,ed");
	$config->setColAlign('center,center');
 
$grid->set_config($config);
$grid->render_table("grid50000","item_id","item_nm,item_cd");

This example initializes the following structure:
