 /**
  FooterView is a YUI View class extension that provides a simple, one row summary row
  to a Datatable. This view provides
  for a summary row appended to the bottom of the DataTable TBODY, typically consisting
  of **one** TH element (with a colspan) and several TD elements for each desired column
  where a "calculated field" is desired.

  View configuration provides for calculated fields based upon the all of the available
  dataset fields within the DataTable's "ModelList".

  The view works with either non-scrolling or scrolling DataTables, and allows for either a
  "fixed" view, wherein the footer remains fixed at the bottom of the DataTable contentBox
  while the table is scrolled.

  #### Calculated Fields

  The current implementation supports the following calculated fields, where they are
  identified by their placeholder tag for replacement via Y.sub (case insensitive);

  * `{sum}` Calculate the arithmetic sum of the specified column in dataset
  * `{min}` Calculate the minimum value of the specified column in dataset
  * `{max}` Calculate the maximum value of the specified column in dataset
  * `{avg}` Calculate the arithmetic average of the of the specified column (synonyms `{mean}`, `{average}`)

  Also, non-looping calcs are;

  *  `{row_count}` Returns the number of rows in the dataset
  *  `{col_count}` Returns the number of columns in the dataset (no visibility check)
  *  `{date}` Returns the current date
  *  `{time}` Returns the current time

  #### Configuration

  YUI 3.6.0 DataTable supports attributes including `footerView` and `footerConfig`.

  This FooterView recognizes the following attributes, which must be configured via the
  DataTable {configs} (see usage example below);

  * [`fixed`](#attr_fixed) : Flag indicating if footer should be fixed or floating
  * [`heading`](#attr_heading) : Object, defining the single TH as;
     * [`colspan`](#attr_heading.colspan) : Number of columns to merge from left for the TH
     * [`content`](#attr_heading.content) : A string indicating the content of the TH for the footer
     * [`className`](#attr_heading.className) : Additional classname for TH
  * [`columns`](#attr_columns) : Array of objects, one per desired TD column in footer as;
     * [`key`](#attr_columns.key) : `key` name from the DataTable columns
     * [`content`](#attr_columns.content) : String indicating the contents of this TD
     * [`className`](#attr_columns.className) : Additional classname for TD
     * [`formatter`](#attr_columns.formatter) : Formatter to apply to this column result
  * [`dateFormat`](#attr_dateFormat) : Format string to use for any {date} fields
  * [`timeFormat`](#attr_timeFormat) : Format string to use for any {time} fields

  Additionally the user can provide a valid function as a column `content` to calculate a
  custom entry for 
  <br/>a column (see [`columns.content`](#attr_columns.content) or [`calcDatasetValue`](#method_calcDatasetValue))

  #### Usage

      var dtable = new Y.DataTable({
          columns:    ['EmpId','FirstName','LastName','NumClients','SalesTTM'],
          data:       AccountMgr.Sales,
          scrollable: 'y',
          height:     '250px',
          width:      '400px',

          footerView:   Y.FooterView,
          footerConfig: {
              fixed:   true,
              heading: {
                  colspan:	3,
                  content:	"Sales Totals for {row_count} Account Mgrs : &nbsp;",
                  className:	"align-right"
              },
              columns: [
                  { key:'NumClients', content:"{Avg} avg", className:"clientAvg" },
                  { key:'SalesTTM',   content:"{sum}", className:"salesTotal", formatter:fmtCurrency }
              ]
          }
      });

      dtable.render('#salesDT');
