Found a solution in the ASP page but it doesn't work for PHP, can this be done in PHPR? when page loads select all and go into inline edit mode so the user has to fill them out. 2. [size="3"] all records setTimeout('$("a[@id^=i[size="3"][color="#ff0000"]edit[/size]link]").each( function() { if(this.id!="i[size="3"]edit[/size]link_add") $(this).click(); });',1000);
