I’m experimenting with the Ajax Generator for the first time and I’m
trying to setup a master/detail edit page.
My goal is to display both the Master info and the detail records on a
single page. And allow detail records to be created/edited/deleted on
the fly.
Not sure its possible, but that’s what I’m trying to do.
=== Details
I have an existing master table of clients.
I’ve just created a detail table of todos. (Plural of todo).
I’ve used the “script/generate ajax_scaffold todo” to create a basic
todos MVC set.
Note the plural todos. For some reason the ajax generator created
files with the plural name.
I now want to edit my master table’s edit view to have it incorporate
the detail records.
As a newbie I’m guessing that I should add
This sort of works.
A blank detail record area is being rendered at the bottom of the
master edit screen and when I click on “new” ajax pops up a new blank
detail record. Even better if I have a detail record in the database
it is rendered properly. (Rendered on all master edit pages, but this
is a very good start.)
The first trouble is that when I try to create a new detail record the
master edit form goes away and the master show page is displayed. The
detail record itself is not being saved.
Am I headed in the right direction, and if so what do I need to do?
Thanks
