I’m in need of an AJAX solution for searching / filtering through one table (let’s call it ‘products’), selecting multiple rows or “all matching results”, and tagging them with taxonomies from a different table.
I’m unable to find a solution already available, but I thought I’d ask all of you clever people for help. At least to point me in the right direction.
Which datagrid (datatable) solution should I choose? I know there are a number out there, but mainly for updating data in a single table.
Requirements:
- Classify selected rows (‘tag’, ‘categorize’, or what you will) or all rows matching the query (could be “select all”, of course).
- AJAX based, using PHP with MySQL.
- Any Javascript library or standalone solution is ok.
The updated items should show the tags/categories in the rows.
If you can even point me in the right direction, I’ll be grateful.
It seems to me that it will be really hard to find something that fits your requirements.
Reading your question with words like “datagrid” and “datatable” makes me suspect that you come from .NET’s world, where you have grid components that will work directly with the info on your table. The only thing that i’ve seen that resembles that for the web is ExtJs.
I’ve found some exemples that you might want to see
Good Luck!
