DRK : New DataGrid Example : Editable Fields and StyleProperties
Fridays are usually slow, so i decided to put together another quick example of the datagrid component available on the Macromedia MX Developer Resource Kit.
You can view the new example here.
Among other features, the example shows off editable fields, and formatting via style properties.
You can see the original example here.
Update 9/14 : I have updated the example to include an index column, and to show how to add a custom sort function.
DRK : DataGrid info updated
Just a quick FYI. We have updated the information on the DataGrid component on the Developer Resource Kit website. It now includes a listing of some of the features of the component.
You can view the description here.
You can see an example of the datagrid in action here.
Calendar Component Examples
Some developers are having problems understanding how the Calendar component works (thread), so i put together a couple of simple examples that show how to use the component.
The first example shows how to work with a single selected date, and the second shows how to work with multiple selected dates.
You can download the files here.
If you know of any other examples online, please post them in the comments.
