Buffering Http State Provider

[jsakalos]

While saving state? I wouldn't do it, it would only distract users - they wouldn't know why something is saving if they "didn't click a save button".

I understand, but my users know. And I wouldn't want them to resize a second column before the first one has finished the query. Can you help me to achieve this ?

Thank you for your time.

HttpProvider is buffering what means that is doesn't immediately send state. There is delay (interval) that defaults to 750 ms so if you resize a column it is quite likely that you can resize also second one within that time frame.

If you still insist on "a save indicator" then you're on your own - I have no time for that functionality and I don't think it is a good idea.

[calavera]

I understand. Thank you anyway, it's a great extension!

Can I please bother you with another question ? Do you have any idea why it worked perfect on my localhost but once moved to online webserver it keeps throwing this PHP error ?

Warning:  Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/*my path*/provider-sqlite.php on line 83 ?

BTW: My provider-sqlite.php is the same as you state-sqlite.php from rowactions plugin. I just got the names mixed up

Where line 83 is from saveState:

foreach($clientArgs->data as $row) { 

I have permissions to the db file and folder. I've runned some tests and $_POST["data"] is not empty at the begining of the file. $clientArgs->data returns an empty array though...

Any ideas ? Thank you

your best bet here is to install firebug and then install the firephp add on. All you have to do then is "include_once" the firephp file and you can send variables back to your firebug console by calling fb($someVar);
This allows for very convenient variable inspection at run time and will allow you to really see what is going on. I suspect that there is a PHP configuration difference between your localhost and your hosted server. Are they running the same PHP version?

make a file on localhost and on your webserver called getInfo.php, and set its contents to
<?php
phpinfo();
?>

then go to http://some path/getInfo.php to get all the current php config on both systems.

I also think that it is PHP config difference. Check php.ini.

Ok, I got it working on my webserver as well. The problem was, as you too were saying in my PHP configurations. My webserver was causing a NULL json_decode because of the magic_quotes setting in PHP.ini. So I just needed to make a stripslashes() over the data. I have made a function to handle different PHP configuration:

function my_json_decode($data) {
    if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
        $data = stripslashes($data);
    }
    return json_decode($data);
} 

I hope this one help others who encounter the same problem. Thank you for your help.

[jsakalos]

Yes, that is solution if you cannot turn magic quotes off. I have my own servers so I simply change php.ini.

Anyway, congrats that you've done it !!!

Yup, shared server over here .
