How to add custom fields for entry into a table?
Hi all,
I originally posted this in another thread but as the topic grew I thought it wise to create a new post.
So I am developing my first ever visualforce page with HTML, something i know very little about.
I have created a table with 5 columns and 13 rows and need to populate the cells with the custom fields I have created and custom formula fields for data entry.
Can anyone help me do this? I Have the field APIs but no idea how to get rid of their field label and allow users to enter into the spaces.
The table looks like this:

And the table code looks like this:
An example of the fields are as follows:
Any help much appreciated

And the table code looks like this:
<table width="95%" border="1" align="center" cellpadding="1" cellspacing="1"> <tbody> <tr> <th width="17%" height="37" scope="col">Item Number</th> <th width="48%" scope="col">Description</th> <th width="13%" scope="col">Qty.</th> <th width="12%" scope="col">Price Per Unit</th> <th width="10%" scope="col">Amount</th> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">1</th> <td> apex:inputfield value={!Purchase_Request_Form__c.Description_of_Item_1__c}</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">2</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">3</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">4</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">5</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">6</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">7</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">8</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">9</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th scope="row">10</th> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th colspan="4" align="right" scope="row"><strong>Shipping Costs (Office will complete)</strong></th> <td> </td> </tr> <tr> <th colspan="4" align="right" scope="row"><strong>TOTAL</strong></th> <td> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
An example of the fields are as follows:
<apex:inputfield value="{!Purchase_Request_Form__c.Description_of_Item_2__c}" required="false"/> <apex:pageblocksectionitem /> <apex:inputfield value="{!Purchase_Request_Form__c.Description_of_Item_3__c}" required="false"/> <apex:pageblocksectionitem /> <apex:inputfield value="{!Purchase_Request_Form__c.Description_of_Item_4__c}" required="false"/> <apex:pageblocksectionitem /> <apex:inputfield value="{!Purchase_Request_Form__c.Description_of_Item_5__c}" required="false"/> <apex:pageblocksectionitem />
Any help much appreciated
Use ApexDataTabel instead of html.It will automatically create table for you.
