Any Impromptu examples?
Hi - its been a long first day trying out jQuery and impromptu; harder than chinese algebra, as Tom Waits might say.
I have used the excellent blog posts by Dan McGhan and Louis-Guillaume Carrier-Bédard to set it up: user clicks on a link to enter a remark; and the remark is updated to the database. Impromptu works; but I dont understand how to update the entered string back to the database. Confused by callback, submit; page submit etc. I appear to have to jump through some hoops to get it back into an application item which is making me reconsider using jQuery modals. Can someone point me to an example of how best to update an Item from a javascript function; and; ideally; the best practice end to end design to capture a value in a javascript modal and then update it to the database? Dan's example is for a tabular form but I cannot derive from this how to do it for a hidden item, so I'm a bit lost.
Any advice appreciated!
Mark
