Hi again :)

i have been playing around again :)

I have a slight display issue. in my database i have a text field that holds data protection wording, which can be quite long.

in the initial table i want this field to just say "set" or "not set" and then in the edit screen to be actually populated with the contents of the field. this would stop the table rows int he table being extremely screwed lol
is this possible? i have a look at onPostSubmit but from what i can tell that just allows you to replace the data..

    Absolutely - you could just use a different data field for each of the table and the form - http://editor.datatables.net/release/DataTables/extras/Editor/examples/formOnlyData.html . It doesn't have to be 1:1 between the two :-).
