dhtmlXTree

Is there any way to tell if the dhtmlXTree has changed since it was loaded? ie, has a user moved a node, added/deleted a node, changed the text of a node, etc, etc, etc?

There are two ways

a) serialize tree exactly after loading, and when necessary serialize it again and compare two serialization strings

or

b) the tree provides events for each mentioned action, it possible to attach custom event handlers, so they will trigger some kind of update flag

var updated=false;
    tree.attachEvent("onEdit",function(){
       updated=true;
       return true;
    })
