Datatable TextBox value change Handler

Hi,

I am formatting one of the datatable's column as TextBox using the below built-in formatter.

Code:

YAHOO.widget.DataTable.formatTextbox

But whenever user changes the value in the textbox, i need to do some business logic like validations etc...

Is there any built-in textbox value change Event just like we have radioClickEvent, dropdownChangeEvent etc.. for other built-in formatters ? If there is one, i can subscribe to that event and do my business logic.

Appreciate any help on this. Thanks in advance.

I think you may be confusing "formatting" with "inline cell editing", which is easy to do with YUI2 DataTables as they both appear very similar.

First things first, I recommend you carefully read articles written by one of the contributors who goes by Satyam, specifically http://yuiblog.com/blog/2008/10/27/datatable-260-part-two/. He also has a website devoted almost fully to YUI2 DataTables at http://www.satyam.com.ar/yui/. This is essential reading ... especially based on the questions you have asked.

These references will introduce you to inline cell-editing, validation, saving editor changes, etc...
Then I suggest you read the DataTable API and look into the "editorSaveEvent" Event where you can incorporate some of your business logic.

Hopefully this will give you a good starting place.

Thanks Smith,

I was precisely referring to 'Formatter' and not cell 'Editor'. Below link has the example of the same.
