Next step, I will save the changes made inside the form with AJAX.

How can I notify my xBrowse that the record changed?

Dear Antonio,
start chrome --new-window --app=https://winhotel.space/formular/index.html --window-position=100,100 --window-size=1200,600
It is not really the same you showed us - maybe it was electron.
But this works for me.

Could you post a screenshot of what you mean ?

Dear Antonio,
