The project I'm working on intends to use a SlickGrid to display filterable and sortable data - up to a maximum of approximately 2 million rows. Other requirements are:
- Some columns have editable data but others have reference data that shouldn't be edited.
- Bulk copy and paste should be supported in editable fields.
- Some field values are calculated by applying formulae to other values in the same row.
Since there could be a large number of rows, data should be loaded using AJAX. Have seen from other questions that some have advised modifying code from the examples (...if so, what is the best fit starting point?). Others have suggested using plugins (e.g. http://labs.nereo.com/slick.html provides copy and paste functionality or a fork such as Andrew Child's (maybe more risk as not officially supported?) There's a lot more to say but my question is really where best to start with all this - has anyone else had similar requirements and learnt by experience?
Grateful for any pointers, however small...
