| Issue 316: | Set Cell Value Externally | |

I need to programmatically modify cells in a jMesa Worksheet. To be more specific, I need the user to be able to modify "ColumnX" in multiple rows at once by having users select which rows they would like to edit (using the checkbox column) and then systematically setting the value of "ColumnX" in the Worksheet to a new value for each of the selected rows. Is this possible? I tried to create a custom cell editor on "ColumnX" that will set the cell to the desired value if the checkbox column in the same row is checked in the Worksheet but I cannot find a way to get at the checkbox status in the Worksheet. I would imagine that the ability to write macros such as this to modify the Worksheet without requiring users to explicitly click on a cell would be very useful in many other instances as well so I am very determined to find a solution. Thank you for any help you can offer!

If you do a modal (popup div) you would still want to refresh the page (table). If you go to another page you could return to the page in the way the user left it by using the State feature.

Thanks Jeff! I was able to do exactly what I wanted once I was able to get at the worksheet so thank you for the advice and for creating such a great tool! |
