# Bio::PrimerDesigner::Tables(3pm)

## NAME

Bio::PrimerDesigner::Table -- Draw HTML tables for PCR primer display

## DESCRIPTION

Draws simple HTML tables to display Bio::PrimerDesigner PCR primer design and e-PCR results for web applications.

## METHODS

### info\_table

Prints a two-column table for generic, key-value style annotations. Expects to be passed the name of the gene/feature/etc. and a hash of attributes. If there is an 'image' key, the value is assumed to be an image URL, which is printed in a double-wide cell at the bottom of the table.

```
  my $gene       = 'Abc-1';
  my %gene_info  = (
      Chromosome => I,
      Start      => 100450,
      Stop       => 102893,
      Strand     => '+'
  );
  my $page = Bio::PrimerDesigner::Tables->new;
  $page->info_table( $gene, %gene_info );
```

### PCR\_header

Returns a generic header for the PCR primer table.  Does not expect any argumments.

### PCR\_set

Returns the top row for the PCR primer table.  Expects the primer set number as its only argument.

### PCR\_row

Returns table rows with PCR primer info.  Should be called once for each primer pair.  Expects to be passed a hash containing the Bio::PrimerDesigner::Result object and the primer set number and an (optional) label.

```
  my $pcr_row =  PCR_row(
      primers => $result_obj,
      setnum  => $set_number,
      label   => $label
  );
```

### ePCR\_row

Returns table rows summarizing e-PCR results.  Expects to be passed an Bio::PrimerDesigner::Result e-PCR results object and an optional e-PCR label.

### render

Renders the image URL. Expects to be passed a hash of the map start and stop, and other features to be mapped (i.e. gene,forward\_primer,reverse\_primer, label,start and stop of each feature, and gene strand).

```
  my $image =  $page->render(
      start => $startleft,
      stop  => $startright,
      feat  => $features
  );
```

### PCR\_map

Returns a 6 column wide table cell with the \<IMG ...\> info. Will display the image of mapped primers in the browser when passed the image URL.
