[reportlab-users] How to Draw Hierarchical tables (1 to many)

[Remy Pinsonnault]

Thanks a lot!

It works perfectly. I also found an interesting product on the Zope site
called RMLPageTemplate (http://zope.org/Members/mkerrin/RMLPageTemplate)

I can build the RML inside a Zope Page Template and the product takes =
care
of calling the trml2pdf script and rendering the PDF!!

Thanks again.

Remy

You want Open Report: http://www.openreport.org/
Then you can make tables in RML, like this:

<blockTable>
  <tr>
    <td>KERRY, JOHN</td>
    <td>ID 12345 -- 2004/12/12</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>1. Looser</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>2. Dumb</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td>3. Laugh without any reason</td>
  </tr>
</blockTable>

More info: RTFM on the site.
