Item12953: header parameter does not work when using row as fieldtype

header parameter does not work when using row as fieldtype.

Fails

%EDITTABLE{
   format="| row,1 | text,20,init |"
   header="|*Nr*|*Text*|"
}%
|||

Works

%EDITTABLE{
   format="| text,1 | text,20,init |"
   header="|*Nr*|*Text*|"
}%
|||

Also, table must not be empty. I.e this one fails as well (might be intended though). Note the missing |||

%EDITTABLE{
   format="| text,1 | text,20,init |"
   header="|*Nr*|*Text*|"
}%

Crawford, I think that this is confirmed. I copied his first two examples - working and failing - to http://trunk.foswiki.org/Tasks/Testcases/TestItem12953 ... and neither of them display the header. So if one is working on 1.1.9, both are failing on trunk.

whoops. Reading the description, header= is used for the ability to create a completely empty table, so I removed the empty ||| line, saved and CRASH.

And we go downhill. Probably a different issue, but I used the back button to get to a topic I could edit, and clicked edit, restored empty tables and save. Another crash in Foswiki::Prefs due to uninitialized variable. See Item12956

-- GeorgeClark - 02 Jul 2014

Fixed to work as per documentation/
