The generated tag has the form CLASS:ID, where CLASS is the object class and ID is the value of the Id property of the object. Use this value to help identify where an issue occurs during document generation.

This example creates table and sets the border, column separator, and row separator styles. The TableEntriesStyle property formats the table entries.

import mlreportgen.dom.*;
doctype = 'html';
d = Document('test',doctype);
t = Table(magic(5));

t.Style = { ...
    RowHeight('0.75in'), ...
    Border('solid','Green','6pt'), ...
    ColSep('double','DarkGreen','3pt'), ...
    RowSep('single','DarkGreen')};

t.TableEntriesStyle = { ...
    Width('0.75in'), ...
    InnerMargin('0'), ...
    OuterMargin('0'), ...
    HAlign('center'), ...
    VAlign('middle') };
    
append(d,t);
close(d);
rptview(d.OutputPath);
