Hi,

Our users would like to be able to "bulk edit" multiple rows and I wondered if the grid supports this?

Currently they do this:

1) Click the row. Editable fields appear

2) Edit data

3) Click the same row again (or another row) and the data is saved.

They would prefer that when the grid first loads, all the editable fields are visible immediately and they can just work their way through each row, editing data, then click a final "save" button somewhere that saves all changes in all rows.

Is that possible? It would be great if someone could point me to a quick example.

Thanks!

I should mention that the grid is working on clientside (local) data. i.e. data is requested from the server using jquery, added row by row to the grid, and then finally saved to the server using a customised process external to the grid.

Ideally, a solution would:

1) Set all rows to "editable" (so that the editing controls are visible)

2) Editing data is correctly stored in the underlying grid dataset (on the client)

3) Paging works correctly and editable controls remain visible and persist changes.

4) Final "save" gets all the rows from the grid and packages them up to send to the server (this will be a separate mechanism, as mentioned above, which I'll create outside the grid and send to the server using jQuery.ajax)
