Hi, I have two cosmetics-related questions:

A) when making a table front-end editable, I want the user to be able to click on a (float type) cell and being writing his/her input immediately. Ideally, the cell would simply be empty (rather than contain "0.0"), or would eliminate the "0.0" immediately upon start typing.

Right now the steps to enter something like 83.5 are:

1. Double-click on a cell

2. enter 83

3. click remove (to erase the 0 from the 0.0 in the cell)

4. advance the caret to after the decimal point

5. enter the "5"

6. click remove (to erase the remaining "0" in the cell)

Or one can click remove three times in step 3 to begin with, and then enter 83.5 - still too much work for an unsuspecting user.

B) Is it possible to somehow make "Enter" either advance to the next cell or finish editing when manually editing a table cell in the front-end?

It's surprisingly annoying that one can't do that by default and for a non-technical user this would be "the table didn't work" issue.

Thank you so much,

Ross

Hi, no, it won't work - I'm talking about front-end editing.

My concern is that my users will try to edit the table using the conventional click-input-enter method and, the way it works now, they will fail. I couldn't find how to make the table on the FRONT-END to display in Excel-like mode.

Is there perhaps some CSS/JS magic that can be applied to the page to allow selection of cell content upon focus + entry upon ENTER?

Thank you!
