dhtmlxgrid and file uploads (vault?)

Hi there!

I got the following use-case: I need to edit data in a grid (no problem so far) and save the corresponding XML. Each row should have an upload possibility for an image and a PDF-file (these will be stored in the filesystem and i want to keep a reference to the uploaded files in the XML).

So what would be the best way to realize that?

Many thanks

Maxx

Hello,

>> I got the following use-case: I need to edit data in a grid (no problem so far) and save the corresponding XML

Grid can be serialized by serialize() method. The sample is dhtmlxGrid/samples/17_serialization/01_pro_serialize.html

>> Each row should have an upload possibility for an image and a PDF-file (these will be stored in the filesystem and i want to keep a reference to the uploaded files in the XML)

The reference to uploaded file can be placed into the userdata tag.

grid.setUserData(rowId,name,value)

Userdata is serialized:

grid.setSerializationLevel(true);
