fnUpdate removes TextBox
fnUpdate removes TextBox

I have a textbox field and I also have a click event on the row. If I click the row it updates this column that is a text box. The user also has the option to just update the value in this textbox. The problem is that when they click the row I use fnUpdate to update that column by increment the value by 1. After the update the table is redrawn and the that column is no longer a textbox. It gets converted to just a display field. Any one know how to solve this problem? I have searched all over and can't find a solution.
