I need to be able to limit data entering DataTable by using a select list - this list will contain year values, so a user chooses a year and only corresponding data enters. Jquery is not my strong point, so any help would be appreciated.
I thought I could do it using "if" Jquery statements to detect year selected then route to DTEditor.mysql.class.php (the file that has the db query code) with the query amended to select for a specific year e.g. user selects 2006, this routes to "2006DTEditor.mysql.class.php"
This would work but I would have to create the DTEditor file for each year, including upcoming years. I need to make sure what ever is selected can be passed to DTEditor which looks for a value and then constructs the mysql query. I have tried using sessions but this just crashed Editor \ DataTables.
Could someone help with a suggestion on where I should look.
Many thanks
Mark
