Create a plugin that use a table

1. Load the dependency "parserTable"
2. call the parser with your jQuery table element

if (!$(elem).data().tblparser) { _pe.fn.parsertable.parse($(elem)); }

That is simple, once the table are fully parsed, each tabular element get a new jQuery.Data attribute called "tblparser". You can access it like this

tblparser = $(elem).data().tblparser;

the "tblparser" object would depend of the "elem". You can use the API Interface to know the relationship and get the attribute available.

If you want, you can access it directly from the Firebox console, something like this

console.log($('table:eq(0)').data().tblparser);

On my Table Usability Concept github project you will find the full API listed here https://github.com/duboisp/Table-Usability-Concept/tree/master/API You will need to use the API under "Table Parser - WET 3.0 release" header.

If you have any question regarding the API or about the Table Usability Concept, don't hesitate to submit an issue (https://github.com/duboisp/Table-Usability-Concept/issues/new)
