edit attributes from datagrid - no map

JaredAllen

i've seen a few posts about editing feature attributes from within a datagrid (no map). i'm attempting to create a strictly attribute query/edit/update web page to give data managers the option to query features based on dynamically created query.where clauses which are set based on form entries/selections.

the following post give some good advice:

i understand the theory of getting data into a grid and styling it, and i think i get how the update function works using the ItemFileWriteStore.setValue(item, columnName, value) function.

however, i am missing the part how to enable the grid to be edited, that is how do i allow user to click in grid cell and accept/capture the typing event and new text? the data grids i've see thus far are clickable with events to zoom, but can't enter new text into a cell... that's the part i need help with.

thanks for any comments or resource suggestions.

Hey Kelly,

I have a question for you

Based on the above link , I have created a grid and made it editable too. For my purpose, I need to take let's say the first row and create parameters out of it and send to a geoprocessing service. What is the best way to access each row and column so I can send it as parameters.

Based on all the documentation, it looks like dgrid takes the entire dataset and sends it to a server but I don't want to do that.

Please help!!
