Hi,
I'm new here, so I hope I don't break any rules.
I have a website that displays a data table (MS Server) on the client page. I need to be able have a server-selected record focused in the table.
That is, when I make a change to the database on the server, I need to have that displayed (the specific record) on the client. I expect something like an event listener or some such is what is needed, but I have no idea where to start on this or what method would be best.
It seems like a simple thing and the sort of thing that would be common, but I can't find the answer. Just one more time to be clear: When I update a record (or provide some other trigger) on the server, I want the user grid to automatically move to that record.
And not to be overly-particular :-) it would be best if the solution does not depend on too much fancy dancing and fussy code. I had something like this working at one time, but it's been way too long for me to find my code as to how I did it. I remember there was some code, Javascript maybe, that was called scroll into view, but as I remember, the difficulty I had was getting something to set the value of the row to located and to actually trigger the SQL do update things on the client.
Any thoughts? I've spent some nights awake trying to figure it out.
Thanks,
JS
