Re: FN-FORUM: PHP version of ASP datagrid?

I'm pretty sure its impossible to customise right click menus from a website
so there will have to be some kind of button which you click in order to
perform each task. The best way to select rows would probably be with a
checkbox at the end of each row and maybe a link that uses javascript to
select all rows.

You could use each records id number to identify each check box uniquely and
then use javascript to loop through each checkbox, check its state and then
build a query based on this. AJAX could then be used to submit the query to
the server and reload the data into the table.

Sort and Filter features could also be implemented using AJAX.

This is just my initial ideas on how I would solve the problem, i haven't
done any research into this to see it if is possible etc so someone please
correct me if there is a better way.
