Save on cell changed

[Carlos]

Hi!
I want to edit several grid cell's, but i want to save in the remote database that change, when the edited cell lose it's focus.

Anyone has already faced the same problem?

Carlos,

You can use the edit event of the grid to help you do this. I've built a sample jsFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/latenightcoder/6ZNqN/1/ 

On the blurring out of a cell, I log it's new value. You can then use that to make a jquery ajax call to a server-side save mechanism.

Joel - your method works with strings only but not with numeric + boolean variables - do you agree?

[Joel]

Yeah, I had thrown that up in a couple of minutes. Here's an update that works with numeric and boolean: http://jsfiddle.net/latenightcoder/6ZNqN/6/

Might need some more tweaking but this should give you a general idea of how to handle the various input types.

many thanks, get the idea. Still throws an error in my application but think that can be managed...

[Carlos]

Thank you! That's one good way to do it! Now how can I get all the attributes from the row with the edited field, I need all of them to make the ajax call...

Thank you!!

Glad to hear it helped!

If you get a chance, could you mark the response as the answer so that it helps other forum users. Thanks!

sorry, another problem - with an empty numeric value the trigger will not work...
