BATCHBOX
========

A jQuery-based widget for managing an array of objects.

Each object's fields are represented by text boxes. The number of fields, name,
placeholder text and class can be configured. Rows can also be sortable.

The intention is that the whole table gets saved in one go, possibly with other
fields in the same form. (Hence "BatchBox".)


USAGE
=====

// each field supports name, placeholder, label and class
// placeholder and class default to the field name
var fields = [{name: 'name'}, {name: 'email'}];

var options = {
    name: 'batchbox',      // becomes the id as well as field name prefix
    'class': 'batchbox',   // added to the table that's generated
    fields: fields,        // required array of objects
    addLabel: 'add',       // value="" for the single add button
    handleLabel: '&nbsp;', // for the <span class="handle"></span> contents
    deleteLabel: 'delete', // for the <span class="delete"></span> contents
    headings: false,       // also add a thead at the start
    sortable: true,        // add handles and invoke .sortable() on tbody
    validate: null         // see defaultValidate in the code
};

// data is optional
var data = [
    {name: 'Alan Alston', email: '[email protected]'},
    {name: 'Le Roux Bodenstein', email: '[email protected]'}
];

// append the batchbox to #container
$('#container').batchbox(options, data);

// serialize the batchbox as an array of [{fieldname: value}]
var json = $('#batchbox').batchbox('serialize');
