I'am not sure if this is Geert's intention pointing us to the keywords,
but i didnt understand how you should pass the tableRows with datalinks
to the next element. even if you pass the whole table instance to the
next element, how much sense does this make for manipulating the bean
represented by a special row?
In the numberguess game you pass a gameid everytime you swith the
element. This is clear. But how much sense does it make to pass the
table structure? i would solve it this way mentioned below: let Rife
create the links etc, but only pass the id of the bean to the
editElement, how it is done in this example:
<a href="${v EXIT:QUERY:cartaction/}remove/${v itemId/}">Remove</a>
There you fetch the bean from the database with this specific id and then do
wheatwever you want with it.
I think you have the idea of 'cutting' a special row by clicking on a link and
then the data from this row is 'extracted' and passed to the editElement. This
wouldnt be my intuitive understanding of solving this problem.
Here' another link of the sortable table example, perhaps this helps a little
bit to understand what Geert ment:
