Maybe this is already possible, but I can't figure out how (I'm a bad scripter, I have to admit)...

What I would like to do, is to add an empty row at the end of datagrid, making it editable so I can add record from the table, without the need of the form. Of course, after the new record is saved to the server, another empty row should be added to perform the same thing over and over. I saw I can add a custom button to the bar (I've done it, actually), so I think it's a matter to add a row with an empty id (the same way the form does, I suppose)... it's simply a matter of design, doesn't it?

I'm quite surprised that no one (I've searched the forum) had requested this feature in the past, I think it could be a great addon to this (really) cool script!

Bye, and thanks for your work!

Hello,

I think it is a simple.

Use addRowData method and you will have idea how to use it.

(you need only to add a empty value for some valid field)

$("#gridid").addRowData("emty_row",{colname:""},'last').editRow("empty_row");

Also see the docs.

Tony

Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction (BTW, calling editRow triggers an error, but since I've tested, it's indeed not needed to do that to achieve the result I want).
