Parent child editor - child editor do not trigger update query

carrarachristophe

Hello,
I am trying to implement the parent child editor but fail to update the child.

I tryied both methods:
* https://editor.datatables.net/examples/datatables/parentChild
* https://editor.datatables.net/examples/advanced/parentChild / https://datatables.net/blog/2016/parent-child-editing

For both:
1. I can see and update the parent table
2. I can see the childs of the each parent
3. BUT when I try to update a child, nothing happens. I can only see with the debug that no UPDATE query runs.

Is anyone able to locate what is missing or wrong?
I copy / pasted the code from the examples and adapted it several times, but it always leads to the same result.

Thanks and regards,
Christophe

Hi Christophe,

Can you link to the page you are working on so I can take a look please? You can PM it to me if you don't want to make the link public.
