A lot depends on how you've got your parent page set up.
For things like this, I use a dojo data store and just tell it to
update/refresh after the record is edited. That doesn't help you much
tho. =]
Without knowing how your data is set up, you've got a few options:
If it's a table that contains the data, you could return the row data
and index, and then loop through the row data, setting the innerHTML
for each cell... (might be able to just set the TR element... hmm,
might not work in ie6 tho...)...
If the rows are all DIVs, you could just return the div id and the
content, and update the div with the content (<--- easiest, I bet ).
Are you having trouble getting to the parent's elements or something?
If you can get to the parent to tell it to refresh, you should be able
to get to it and just update the elements you want updated.
A lot depends on how this parent page is set up tho, and without more
details (not to do your work for you (although many times that's a
side-effect, if you look at it that way)) there's only so much help
folks can offer.
