Re: Clearting Out and re-populating filteringtable

Thanks for that Joe.

Just come accross another problem though:

this
 this.fTable.valueField = data["key"];

doesnt seem to be working, the returned data returns the key [ valueField] thats unique in the returned dataset.

If it set it when the filtertable is instantiated ...

_this.fTable = dojo.widget.createWidget("FilteringTable",{alternateRows:"true", valueField: "ID"},_this._fTable);

it works fine, but I dont want this to happen. I want the returned dataset to set the vaueField - can the valueField only be specified when the widget is created?

any help muchly appreciated.

Martin.

This works just fine for me: this.fTable.store.setData([]);

which may be just a tad cleaner if the columns field was not intended
to be exposed (just guessing here).

Cheers,

Joe.
