I'm hoping that someone uses cfgrids to make some
tables.  I'm not very good at javascripts or jquery so
I am using cfgrid to make a table.  I'm having a few
issues.

1.  This is my biggest issue.  I need 1 of the columns
(the primary key) to be uneditable or deletable.  I
need it to always be displayed in the table.  
Basically, the primary key acts as rooms.  Like rooms
in a hotel.  They do not change and they always need
displayed.  Right now they are in the same table as the
info on who is in the room, etc.  Should I just make a
2nd table and link them?

2. I'm using an editable table but I want some of the
fields to not be editable.  When I change those fields
to <cfgridcolumn select = "no">  I get an SQL integer
type error.  When I take the select = "no" out, the
error goes away.  Why would that be.

3. Finally, I'm using a mask for the date and it
doesn't display the hour and the minutes correctly.  If
I use G:i a It will just say 00:00 am even though my
database will say 0500.

I am not a big fan of cfgrid... havent used it in years... however on the
primary key question, you can show it.. just make sure that you don't
have this on the field:

selectmode="edit"

By not having that.. it will NOT allow editing of that column.

I think you should really look into newer methods of doing this.. you
might want to check out this tutorial:

Main reason I'm using cfgrid is I wanted to make it so
the rows were editable.  I'm just writing a little
program for the ER that I work in.  It's only for when
our main multi-million dollar piece of crap system goes
down so that we can track patients and their room
assignments, etc.  So, in order to do this, I need the
staff to be able to change things and I didn't want
them to have to go through a separate page since the ER
is super busy (less steps are good).

Also, I had planned on a separate thread later but how
do you do the separate post method?  I'm going to need
the ability to refresh the page without resubmitting
data.

I looked at that tutorial and it's not very involved in
the explanation.  I can't seem to get it to work and my
javascript skill suck.
