Alternative to jqGrid, just an edit feature with ajax

I've been searching around for a jquery plugin or some js source code that will allow me to implement editing on a html table created with ajax. I came across jqGrid but I feel like it's a bit overkill and it would resort to me having to cr开发者_开发问答eate the table on the server side. Plus, I already wrote the ajax for deleting rows. All I really need is inline editing of text fields, check boxes, select dropdowns and jQuery ui DatePicker.

Does anyone know of a plugin or tutorial on how to implement this type of editing into an html table with ajax? If not, a guideline to writing the js would be very helpful.

The best is SlickGrid: SlickGrid

Documentation is still a little light but it's CRAZY fast. As of this writing, the only way to learn how to use it is to look through the examples:
