I am using jquery-datatables-rails in one of my application and displaying a grid.

In order to make it editable I added jquery-datatables-editable-rails in my gemfile.

However, I can't find a way to make the rows editable.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Here is how my coffee script file for enabling datatable looks like 

jQuery ->
 $('#products').dataTable
   sPaginationType: "full_numbers"
   bJQueryUI: true

  • I am attempting the same thing and I'm confused if I need both gems, jquery-datatables-rails and jquery-datatables-editable-rails. Some example code would be awesome if anyone has done this in Rails. Commented Aug 21, 2013 at 17:04
