Editor back end

chinaski

I'm interested in the editor extension but am wondering about the back end to the extension. I see there is a php library associated with this, but I'm leery about opening up my database to yet another third-party library. I'm already employing a framework with db access models set up to manage the data. I haven't downloaded the demo yet, but I'm wondering how difficult it is to use my own framework to handle the server side stuff. This would include validation routines as well.

Answering my own question, I guess this page serves as a good reference point: https://editor.datatables.net/manual/server

Hi,

Yes, a completely understand your point of view and that is one of the reasons the Editor client / server communication protocol is documented. You can also modify the data submitted and returned using preSubmit and postSubmit if you need to manipulate the data format at all.
