HI Tony, now that you were able to show me how to make the (my) "ID"
field readonly, it is now being sent to the server like this:   id:
(21,7)   - Where 21 is my database key field and 7 is the row
placement. I can work with this because I can just parse it. BUT, the
delete method is still only sending the row placement. Is there a way
that I can add additional data to the parameters being sent with the
delete request?

Sorry if it's in the documentation and I've missed it. Believe me I
haven't closed this PDF file in days and I am pretty sure I've read
the whole thing a couple times over trying to learn everything for
this great tool.

Also, I have the jqModal.css file linked to the page, but maybe there
is something else missing. I checked in my grid configuration and I
have closeAfterAdd: true, closeAfterEdit: true,  . . . but, it is not
closing after successful action. Does this solidify to you that this
is definitely a CSS issue??

Thanks again for the help!
