Hello,
I'm new to CMS. I think have an idea for a module, and I want to see if it exists already. I have a searches a bit without any luck. Perhaps someone more experience will know of a module. I will attempt to describe what I'm thinking...
I have a site that has a template that will just show a table. I thought it would be nice for the editors to just have a form of data to type in, and my template could handle laying out the data according the template. I haven't given it much more thought than that.
I'm a programmer, so I might be willing to write it. But, I can hardly believe something like this wouldn't exists already.
Thanks

Formbuilder/Formbrowser might do it.
The table layout would be handle by the template of the module not in a separate module. You need to define/describe what the data is and what is done with it to be more specific on the module to use.

Is there an example of this somewhere? Form the searching I've done it seems like a tool to manage forms not tables.
I'd love a system that will handle tables. LIke a table of links. In the admin, the user could choose the rows and columns, and perhaps some styles information, then type some data in have it all inserted into the page.
I'm finding using TinyMCE to manage tables not the best. Dojo editor does tables nicely, but suffers in other ways.
I'm thiking I'll use instead, as it seems easier for the user to create more rows.
Thanks

What is not right with TinyMCEs tables...?
Did you tick the setting in settings of TinyMCE to allow table-operations?
