Offline data entry, then sync data

[rkmorayMember]

I am looking for a tool that enables me to bind to a db, then when the user goes offline, they will have the ability to edit/add data. When the user then reconnects to the internet, they can sync the data changes back with the server.

can jqwidgets do that, or should I be looking for a different tool?

Thanks

Hi rkmoray,

The datagrid widget works on the client side, so you can add/remove/update data without synchronization with a server. For example: createremoveupdatedata.htm.

But how do I then update the server with the new data?

Hi rkmoray,

As shown in the sample, when a row is added, removed or updated, jqxGrid calls functions of the source object – updaterow, addrow and deleterow. If you don’t want to sync with the server each time when some of these functions is called, create local arrays and put the updated, deleted and added rows to them. Then once you decide to sync with the server, you can make Ajax calls and use your local arrays with records.
