I am working on a billing application (LAMP). I can have multiple businesses that have multiple services. I have a grid displaying my businesses; when I click a business, it displays the services purchased by this business.

The way I have it working currently, the billing people enter services in fields at the top of the services grid, click "Create Service", then the service is saved to the db. When the billing people want to edit a service, they click an edit button at the end of the row, the information for that service is repopulated into the fields at the top of the services grid, and the "Create Service" button is changed into an "Update Service" button. When clicked, the service is updated in the db.

The billing people now want to be able to edit these services in-line, instead of having it repopulate the input fields. I did some Googling and found jqGrid would work for this. After playing with jqGrid for a while, I have come to the conclusion that I might not be able to do what I want with jqGrid after all. Below is a sample of my application, and an explanation follows.

 

<html>
    <head>
        <title>Cleaning Services and Fees</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <div class="module" id="serviceModule">
            <h2>Cleaning Services and Fees</h2>
            <form name="serviceForm" id="serviceForm" method="POST" action="./eventHandler.php">
                <table id="serviceTable" border="1">
                    <thead>
                        <tr>
                            <th nowrap>
                                <label for="serviceLocation"> Service Location </label><br>
                                <select id="serviceLocation" name="serviceLocation" onChange="frequencyHandler(this.value);">
                                    <option selected disabled>Choose Service Location</option>

When a person chooses a Service, I use AJAX to grab the frequency (daily,weekly,monthly) from the db and populate the Frequency of the Service. When a person chooses the Frequency, the Fee Unit Amount is then populated. All of this is doable with jqGrid, but there are two functions within each row that I do not know if I can accomplish with jqGrid.

The first function is the ability top copy one to N services from one business to another (to make it easier for the billing people). This is accomplished by clicking boxes at the end of the row of services, then clicking a similar box next to the new business, then clicking the "copy services" button. Behind the scenes, AJAX executes a stored procedure that copies all selected services to the new business.

The second function is a "Notes" editing function. When a user clicks the Notes icon, a new window opens where they can edit the note, then click to save.

So, given my code and an explanation of what I need to accomplish, is what I am wanting to accomplish "doable" by jqGrid? Specifically, since jqGrid doesn't use a standard HTML form, I am not sure how I can get my custom "buttons" (e.g., notes, copy services) into the jqGrid generated table/form.
