Re: [Catalyst] Jason Kohles' tutorial on ExtJs editable data gridsand Catalyst
Hi Craig, Thanks a lot for taking the trouble to work through the tutorial. Since you have been able to get it to save changes to the database, I think we will be able to isolate where I'm going wrong. Regarding whether to use 'Catalyst' or 'c' as the context, when I created the TT view with the Catalyst helper command 'script/adventajaxgrid_create.pl view TT TTSite', it automatically set the CATALYST_VAR = 'Catalyst'. I changed this to 'c', and the 'Catalyst.uri_for' to 'c.uri_for'. The Ext Grid behaves just like before. It does everything except the Save. Can you paste your root/static/advent.js and your View/JSON.pm ? I would like to compare it with what I have done.

Re: [Catalyst] Jason Kohles' tutorial on ExtJs editable data gridsand Catalyst
Hi Peter, Scott and Craig, Thanks a lot. Commenting out 'console.log' worked. It works irrespective of whether I use 'Catalyst.uri_for' or 'c.uri_for'. I guess that line can be there only if one is using firebug. And I think the tutorial code worked for Craig because he was using firebug. Is that right Craig? Thanks to Scott for being so perceptive and to Peter for being persistent.
