Hey Guys, first I'd like to say that the LiveGrid is a really nice piece of code that works well for what it does. My only gripe with it is it's reliance on the in memory buffer to hold row contents. It would be nice if the contents of a cell were changed via DOM scripting that the LiveGrid would know this (or could be told about it through a function call) so that it could modify it's buffer to have the new version of the data. To see the problem in action for yourself you can just add a checkbox form element in on of your LiveGrid columns. If you change the state of the checkbox and then scroll the LiveGrid (even by only 1 row) the state of the checkbox will go back to the way it was before you change it. Anyway, keep up the good work.

An improved version of the LiveGrid by dowdy brown can be found in http://dowdybrown.com and yes in one of its examples (Ex7) it use checkboxs inside the grid. Leeh

Leeh, This example uses a pre-filled grid. Record selection in a dynamic grid may still need some work. It at least needs to be demonstrated and confirmed to work. Ken

I think I've checked into that version of the LiveGrid and if I recall correctly it did seem to handle check boxes OK, but I'd also like to be able to make arbitrary changes (via Javascript) to any element that shows up in any row or column of the live grid and to have those changes stick. Not to knock anybody or their work, that's just my wish list item. Jeremy
