How do you bind the selected value on the grid to an edit/add form?
I don't. By convention the base class of the buttons bar fires
first a change in the tab to the edit/add form, then a
"displayData" method passing along the XML of the selected
row only. What ever is at the other end is bound to XPath of
that incoming XML. So the parameter passing really decouples
the binding directly. If I change to an entire different
grid, the edit/add form could care less so long as the data
it gets passed is there.
This seems very clever.
In the examples I found at the Developer Guide, seems that a datapath is
almost always tied to a dataset. When I use datapath.setNodes() with the
selected grid node, the replicationmanager behavior is changed. Is there
any sample showing the trick to make a datapath more reliably point to
arbitrary xml data?
In another subject, I made some experiences with the grid component, and
I could not find any event for the 'sort' operation in the reference
guide. I have a widget showing "current record/total records" and it
works well except it is not updated when the grid reorder gridlines.
Many thanks,
