those are the only ones i know about. if you don't want the buttons to show up then you should probably do something along the lines of creating the table with the editable fields and then looping through all of the inputs and adding an event watcher of onblur that will check the field to see if it has changed and if it has submit the changes -- which might actually be optional if you provide a save button and rely on the 'jesus saves and so can you' methodology of relying on the user to save their work.
thats about the last bit i can offer, and actually, thinking about it, is probably the simplest if you give the input fields a common class name, and it wouldn't require any additional libraries etc On Wed, Apr 16, 2008 at 9:47 AM, greghauptmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > thanks Brian - this one still pops up a sub-window to edit.
