Hi frens

I have a row containing 3 text field and a dropdown. the user enters details into the textbox and chooses a option from the dropdown. User may choose to save the details or add more details by clicking on Save or Add Row button resp. If the user clicks Add Row button, another row of fields similar to the previous row must append to the table. This should happen without the page getting refreshed, because i dont want to loose the data entered in the 1st row.

I came across many threads in this forum, but they seemed like the page would get refreshed on clicking Add Row.

Please help me with this..

Counting on you guys..

thanks
