How to feed the datastore with data and refresh it by url

Submitted by goriol on Wed, 12/24/2008 - 16:40.

Hi,

I have got a data store defined with a "data" property instead of "url" because the data is already known when the HTML page is sent by the server, and I can thus avoid an XHR request to the server afer the page is loaded.

var data = { /* Object initially populated by my PHP script */ };
var store = new dojo.data.ItemFileWriteStore({ data: data });

Then, if something goes wrong with my custom save function (as this data store populates an editable grid), I would like to get data back from the server, as if I had defined the data store with an "url" property, and refresh the grid after the data has been received.

Is there a solution to do it?

grid.setStore(new dojo.data.ItemFileWriteStore({url:'path/file'}));

Thank you fivefeet8. Is the

setStore will refresh the grid

The new store will refresh it's data from the url and the grid setStore function will set the new data to it's display.
