Answer 1

AngularJS developer @igor-minar answered this in Angular.js ng-repeat across multiple elements.

Miško Hevery recently implemented proper support via ng-repeat-start and ng-repeat-end. This enhancement hasn't been released as of 1.0.7 (stable) and 1.1.5 (unstable).

Update

This is now available in 1.2.0rc1. Check out the official docs and this screencast by John Lindquist.

Answer 2

Using ng-repeat on tbody appears to be valid see this post.

Also a quick test through an html validator allowed multiple tbody elements in the same table.

Update: As of at least Angular 1.2 there is an ng-repeat-start and ng-repeat-end to allow repeating a series of elements. See the documentation for more information and thanks to @Onite for the comment!

Answer 3

You can do it in this way, as I showed in this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/26420732/769900

<tr ng-repeat="m in myData">
   <td>{{m.Name}}</td>
   <td>{{m.LastName}}</td>

   <td ng-if="$first" rowspan="{{myData.length}}">
       <ul>
           <li ng-repeat="d in days">
               {{d.hours}}
           </li>
       </ul>
   </td> 
</tr>

Having multiple elements might be valid but if you're trying to build a scrollable grid with fixed header / footers, the follow could will not work. This code assumes the following CSS, jquery and AngularJS.

HTML

<table id="tablegrid_ko">
        <thead>
            <tr>
                <th>
                   Product Title
                </th>
                <th>
                </th>
            </tr>
        </thead>

        <tbody ng-repeat="item in itemList">
            <tr ng-repeat="itemUnit in item.itemUnit">
                <td>{{itemUnit.Name}}</td>
            </tr>
        </tbody>
</table>

CSS to build fixed header/footer for scrollable table grid

#tablegrid_ko {
    max-height: 450px;    
}
#tablegrid_ko
{
border-width: 0 0 1px 1px;
border-spacing: 0;
border-collapse: collapse;
border-style: solid;
}

#tablegrid_ko td, #tablegrid_ko th
{
margin: 0;
padding: 4px;
border-width: 1px 1px 0 0;
border-style: solid;
}


#tablegrid_ko{border-collapse:separate}
#tablegrid_ko tfoot,#tablegrid_ko thead{z-index:1}
#tablegrid_ko tbody{z-index:0}
#tablegrid_ko tr{height:20px}
#tablegrid_ko tr >td,#tablegrid_ko tr >th{
border-width:1px;border-style:outset;height:20px;
max-height:20px;xwidth:45px;xmin-width:45px;xmax-width:45px;white-space:nowrap;overflow:hidden;padding:3px}

#tablegrid_ko tr >th{
background-color:#999;border-color:#2c85b1 #18475f #18475f #2c85b1;color:#fff;font-weight:bold}
#tablegrid_ko tr >td{background-color:#fff}
#tablegrid_ko tr:nth-child(odd)>td{background-color:#f3f3f3;border-color:#fff #e6e6e6 #e6e6e6 #fff}
#tablegrid_ko tr:nth-child(even)>td{background-color:#ffffd;border-color:#eaeaea #d0d0d0 #d0d0d0 #eaeaea}

div.scrollable-table-wrapper{
background:#268;border:1px solid #268;
display:inline-block;height:285px;min-height:285px;
max-height:285px;width:550px;position:relative;overflow:hidden;padding:26px 0}

div.scrollable-table-wrapper table{position:static}
div.scrollable-table-wrapper tfoot,div.scrollable-table-wrapper thead{position:absolute}
div.scrollable-table-wrapper thead{left:0;top:0}
div.scrollable-table-wrapper tfoot{left:0;bottom:0}
div.scrollable-table-wrapper tbody{display:block;position:relative;overflow-y:scroll;height:283px;width:550px}

Jquery to bind horizontal scrolling of tbody, this does not work because tbody repeats during ng-repeat.

$(function ($) {

$.fn.tablegrid = function () {


        var $table = $(this);
        var $thead = $table.find('thead');
        var $tbody = $table.find('tbody');
        var $tfoot = $table.find('tfoot');

        $table.wrap("<div class='scrollable-table-wrapper'></div>");

        $tbody.bind('scroll', function (ev) {
            var $css = { 'left': -ev.target.scrollLeft };
            $thead.css($css);
            //$tfoot.css($css);
        });


    }; // plugin function



}(jQuery));
