add input boxes to same page having grid

[Ken Ambrose]

Hi,
My users need to do some data entry in text boxes on a page where I am also displaying a grid. How do I add input form elements on a page with a grid so that I can capture and process the data entered on my input elements along with any form variables that the gridd will submit?

Thanks!

use magiccell to create the INPUT box and capture the submit.

Now, I understand your question as to insert your own INPUT boxes in the SelectItem grid and then submit them altogether with the "buy" button.

try this ->

do a magiclayout and export the entire grid w/o displaying. Scan the HTML source and find the </form> or <form> or any convinent and unique place to insert your INPUT code, keep track of your input names and then display the session var. It&#39;ll look just like the normal display plus you&#39;ll have your boxes.....

Hi Frank,
I was able to create the magiccell input fields on the page, but only by using an additional ASPDB instance on the page. Unfortunately then the data entered into those additional fields won&#39;t be submitted when the dbSelectedItemMacro submits the ASPDB instance which is displaying the grid.

Hi Ken,

I recently did exactly this on a programming project with ASPdb. Contact me at john@majormicro.com if you&#39;re interested in some consulting on how it can be done.

Thanks,
John

To help out this customer, I moved one of the .NET feature to ASP-db2002 as -
X.dbTextAnchor=&#34;(;,)Index,Anchor text;....repeat&#34;

Index location is pre-determined and 1= before grid table 2=after grid text table (all within <FORM>s etc......

Sorry about taking consulting business away form you as this one is already done...
