How to add a record to a linked table in Yii2 using pjax?

Question

Yii

I open a table entry for viewing, below the entry fields, I display a GridView with entries from the associated table. Now I want to add form fields below this table for its quick completion. What options I do not try, all lead to a page reload. Or the only option is to use ajax to submit the form and then call the grid update via pjax?

Answer 1

Look at the logs, what request flies and what happens there. There are a lot of options, or the form does not cling to pjax and sends a regular post, or there is a redirect in the controller, or an error or a timeout and pjax sends a normal request after its expiration.
