Nested inline table within an editor window?

Hi Allan,

Is it possible to have an editor window display a datatable with inline editing? For example, I have a main table with some high level details and I would like to be able to hit a button to show me all the detail lines for that high level row with inline editing. I can custom code a button to load a separate page and have the table instance there, but I was wondering if I could be more slick in keeping it all the same page and having the editor window do the magic.

Thanks

hi,

I'm afraid that this isn't possible at the moment. There are parts of the Editor code that expect there to only be one Editor instance visible on the page at a time, which is the primary limiting factor here. You could certainly have a DataTable in a field type (a plug-in for which I'll be working on next month) but an inline editor inside that wouldn't work at the moment I'm sorry to say.
