Update Row when Row Details are Edited

darlene

Thanks for a great tool and a wonderful support forum here! I am new to jQuery, but I have managed to put together a table with hidden row tables, editable row details, checkboxes to select a few rows for other processing, and a few custom sort plugins. I am currently trying to handle automatically updating a row when one of its fields is edited from within the hidden row details. So when I edit something in the row details, I want the parent row to reflect that change, but I don't want to reload the whole page since the state of the sorting and hidden rows would change. Can somebody recommend a way to accomplish this?

I am currently getting data from the DOM (Django templates) and handling the sorting and other processing on the client side. I am not sure if switching to a server-side data source is the answer. Please advise.
