HTMLBeginCell Function

Overview

The HTMLBeginCell function starts a table cell for a managed table. Data can then be added using the HTMLAddText function.

Syntax/Parameters

Syntax

int = HTMLBeginCell ( handle hObject, [int span], [int row], [int column] );

Parameters

hObject

A handle to an HTML Writer Object.

span

An optional int specifying the column span for the cell. If omitted, the span value is inherited from the current cell (normally 1 or not spanned). When set, the cell cannot have been previously spanned. To specify default, use -1 or 0.

row

An optional int specifying the zero-based row position for the cell. If omitted, the current row position is used.

column

An optional int specifying the zero-based column position for the cell. If omitted, the current next column position is used.

Return Value

An int as ERROR_NONE (0) for no error or a formatted error code.

Remarks

A cell can be begun (or opened) multiple times. It can only be spanned once. If spanned, subsequent calls must either inherit or use the same span value. After a cell has been opened, text can be added using the HTMLAddText Function.
