refresh jeditable tabledetails

tombopp

Hello again,

I got following situation:

I have a table with almost 30 clickable/editable details. I use serversideprocessing and now, once a specific details-element is edited another details element should be calculated and updated.

A simple refresh changes the value and redraws the entire table, but i am looking for a possibility to refresh just this specific element without closing the the rowdetails.

Every hint, advise or suggestion is welcome.

Hi Tombopp,

fnUpdate allows you to update just a single cell: http://datatables.net/api#fnUpdate . Would this do what you want? You can tell it not to redraw the table, which would happen by default with server-side processing. Or perhaps just direct DOM manipulation?

Hope this helps,
Allan

Hi Allan,

thanks for your answer but ....no positiv result.

I tried fnUpdate for single cells but it always closes the rowdetails and changes nothing. And DOM manipulation is the same.

It seems like a kind of adressing problem, but Idont know. Perhaps it is the problem that i call it out of a jeditable callback?

But when I adress a cell in another table without rowdetails it works fine...?!!?

i think i have to find another workaround.

Hi Tombopp,

How do you mean "rowdetails"? Do you mean you are using fnOpen / fnClose, and you want to update the 'opened row'? I missed that the first time around - sorry. fnUpdate wouldn't help with that... Can you just call fnOpen on the original row again? That effectively closes and then opens a new row with your new details - but it would happen so fast that the browser wouldn't have time to reflow (i.e. you wouldn't see it).

Regards,
Allan
