3.2.0

Adding new row from within the data

Hi All,

I am trying to add a new row without using a button. I would like to add a floating or fixed footer row to the data that the user can click in and add text.

My attempts at the moment have led me to use a footer fixed at the bottom (not ideal) but I will need to be able to make this editable.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks.
BTW: I will post the full code when done.

I used it (footer-inputs) to filter data, but it could be used to add new rows also.

Are you using a JS array?
If so, have you tried adding an extra array element that has empty data and is editable?

Sure, the v.10 form-validator do it Why not in v.2.0?
here is a snap-shot with "few" more features:

thanks carlos,
Your examples helped quite abit. Here is the resulting code.

Hope it helps everyone. Its an example of adding deleting and change row data from a CSV source.

Please let me know if I can refine the code in anyway. ( i added a few comments to give you an idea of my thoughts).
