I have a table of data. I would like the user to be able to select a row and view the details in a jquery modal dialog.

I have this working fine. Based on permissions, the user may be able to edit the data in the modal. In this case, I would like to present a button to switch to “edit” mode.

Would it make sense for this button to load a new partial Edit view into the modal? or should I just combine the Read-only and Edit forms into a single view thats loaded intially and use javascript/css to hide the Edit Form until needed?

    I think it’s more of a design question as long as you don’t send the Edit Form to the client side and only hide in case when the user doesn’t have the permission to edit it.

    Otherwise you’ll be better of discussing this with the stakeholders.

    In my personal opinion, I simply hate Modals. They just tend to be very overwhelming but that’s just me 🙂
