Question

I have recently started using the EditTablePlugin but I am having problems when trying to edit tables larger than about 8~10 rows.

The tables I am using start empty and rows are added via the "Add Row" button. so I am completely specifying the header and format attributes of the EDITTABLE{...} tag.

But after about 8~10 line have been added to my tables the buttons no longer respond properly. That is, after pressing "Add Row" or "Save Changes" my browser seems to be waiting on server to respond and just sits there. I've left this to run but don't even get an eventual timeout ( haven't left his overnight though).

My server and twiki are quite responsive if I view/edit pages in a separate browser.

I have patched the EditTablePlugin during the install of JSCalendarAddOn. Other than that the plugin seems to work fine on smaller tables(?)

Are there any known problems with this combo of plugins?

Or am I mis-using the plugin attributes...?

This is an example of a table that I cannot add any more rows to on my TWiki but seems to work here.:

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer

If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

Some extra investigation on the server side of things shows that each time this happens a perl.exe process is spawned but not terminated. We end up with lots of perl.exe processes running on the server until eventually the twiki becomes unresponsive..
