Editing many, many fields beyond what is shown in a datatable?

gdpodesta

Am just beginning my evaluation of editor (looks real good), but need to know if I can display a small set of columns, but have the ability to edit many other columns in the database that are related. I'll need to use a jquery tab to contain them all, as well as a number of specific validation checks.

I don't want to spin my wheels if this is something that datatables and editor cannot easily handle.

Thanks in advance!

Absolutely yes. There is an example of that shown here: http://editor.datatables.net/release/DataTables/extras/Editor/examples/formOnlyData.html .

Equally you can have data that is shown in the table, but not the form: http://editor.datatables.net/release/DataTables/extras/Editor/examples/tableOnlyData.html
