In my current project I’m working on a BizTalk application and some user interface built in ASP.NET MVC. As a BizTalk consultant my Javascript skills aren’t the best in the world but for the user interface I had to create a view with a “tree control” look.
From my early days as web developer I remembered to do that using DIV tags and Javascript to hide and show parts of the tree. Since that is a while ago I prepared myself for some (for me) hard core HTML and Javascript.
This year I visited the Dutch DevDays and there I saw Jan Tielens doing amazing things with jQuery, so I decided to give it a go.
I was very happy to find out someone actually wrote a TreeTable plugin using jQuery, but how easy would it be to implement it?
It took me about 15 minutes to get this working and it looks good!
Awesome!
