Hello all,
I have a bit of a problem and was wondering if this could be accomplished without too awful much work.
First, I am not very proficient in JS/JQuery but since reading these forums, I have become better.
Here is my problem.
I am populating a table server side with 700-800 records with about 7 columns. Two of those columns are fields.
Entry in these fields are dependent on claim responses received from our Labor Relations department. Once all the fields are entered as need be then this "form" table is submitted to mysql for processing.
The first requirement is to only submit rows with non-empty text boxes. I managed to do this part by using an .each statement looking for non-empty fields. Just using the .serialize() function sent everything.
Next requirement and this is what I need help with. Something along the lines of a cookie type implementation. Since I cannot figure this out, I had to go to a client-side approach and it is verrrrrry slow and unresponsive. It works but not what I want because of the slow speed.
Reason I had to go client-side is because anytime I used paging, sorting, filtering, etc., since new data was retrieved it overwrote the data that had been entered.
I saw a similar issue in the forums that I was going to try to implement but never could get it to work. If I remember, it populated an array then after the redraw or refresh, this array was used to repopulate the text boxes that have been entered.
Hope this is not too confusing, but if anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please feel free to point me in right direction.
Appreciate any help that can be given.
