    <p>I'm using jeditable plugin for JavaScript and I want to implement it in my Symfony2 project. I want to edit a name with the plugin and that name to be edited in the database, too, not the change to be gone when I refresh the page, but in my case, it's gone. :(</p> <p>I'm almost sure that the controller shouldn't be in that way and the problem is from it, but how exactly to write it? Here it is:</p> <pre><code>public function editCategoryAction(Request $request, $id) { $category = $this-&gt;repository-&gt;find($id); $form = $this-&gt;createForm(new CategoryType(), $category); if ($request-&gt;isMethod('POST')) { $form-&gt;bind($request); if ($form-&gt;isValid()) { $this-&gt;em-&gt;persist($category); $this-&gt;em-&gt;flush(); return $this-&gt;redirect($this-&gt;generateUrl('categories')); } } return $this-&gt;render( 'AcmeBudgetTrackerBundle:Categories:categories.html.twig', array( 'form' =&gt; $form-&gt;createView())); } </code></pre> <p>This is my <strong>template</strong>:</p> <pre><code> &lt;a href="{{ path('edit_category', { 'id': cat.id}) }}"&gt; &lt;strong class="edit"&gt; {{ cat.name }} &lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/a&gt; &lt;script&gt; var token = "{{form._token.vars.value}}"; var path = "{{ path('edit_category', { 'id': cat.id}) }}"; &lt;/script&gt; </code></pre> <p>And this is in the <strong>.js file</strong>:</p> <pre><code>(function(){ $('.edit').editable(function (value, settings) { var data = {}; data[this.id] = value; data["_token"] = token; console.log(path); console.log(data); $.post(path, data); return(value); }, { indicator:'Saving...' }); }) (); </code></pre> <p>The output in the console looks fine:</p> <pre><code>/BudgetTracker/web/app_dev.php/edit_category/52 Object {: "Edu", _token: "9d29860b59ccafbc265ea12346c91fa7e378cc97"} </code></pre> <p>but the problem is that nothing is posted to the database and when I hit refresh the change I made is gone.</p> <p>Can you please help me to solve this? Thanks in advance! :)</p>

    1. COI'm using jeditable with sonata, but little difference in my code, I'm not using symfony form (but I guess I should) and I'm using the default editable with url instead of function (and I think you should) because it handle the data sending with ajax instead of doing it yourself. So I think you should check if you go through the isValid() first, and remove the return redirect since you are doing ajax and you don't want redirection.

    2. COAnd btw, what's the purpose of your <a href></a>? Isn't it messing with jeditable?

    3. CO<a href> is there because I don't know how to say the id of the element I'm editing in another way.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
