Change color of cell after edit

mikelucks

I would like to change the color of a cell after it has been edited. There is a similar question already posted in the Forums, but I can't make sense of the answer. Can anyone please post a simple example of how to do this?

Yes, the Datatables Editor.

Still hoping for some advice on this. Is it possible to do it using the DataTables Editor -- or is an external plugin (e.g. JEditable) required?

How about something like this...

<table border=1 bordercolor=black cellspacing=0 cellpadding=4>
<tr>
<td><input type="text" onchange="$(this).closest('td').addClass('changed');"/></td>
</tr>
</table>

<style>
td.changed {
    background-color: yellow !important;
}
</style>

Hope this helps!

That looks promising -- I'll give it a try. Thanks!
