Please run testData.sql against a database and change the example files to point to that database to view the examples.
1 CONSTRUCTION
call __Construct($query,$interval) to create the report with the query you want and the number of records on a page
or __Construct($query) with all records on the page
or __Construct($query,"",$order,$direction)

2 ADDING FIELDS TO THE REPORT

or addDisplayField($name,$display)
$name is the name of the field in the databases and must be in the query you constructed with
$display is the heading of the field displayed to the user

or addSpecialDisplayField($name,$display,$text,$sizeOfField=50)
$name is the name of the field in the database. this is only used for sorting purposes. if the user sorts on this field this field in the database will be used.
$display is the heading of the field displayed to the user
$text this is the special text that will be used as the field, anything in {} will be replaced by a field in the database eg. if name is a field in the database use <a href="javascript:alert('you clicked on {name}')">{name}</a>
