Jquery php, update html after dialog - Update description with out refreshing page

Here is 500 points

I have a list of file descriptions that came from a database. using php
I want to allow the user to change the description by pressing
an edit icon
if they click on the description, I show them the file.

AFter the edit the name, I want to update the html table
with out refreshing the screen.  

There are many files with Descriptions.  and a varable # of them.
So need to pass the file ID, so I know which one they are updating.

if they did not have to press on the name to view, I would have tried Jeditinline

I don't see a question.  Do you want something like this?

http://www.w3schools.com/jquery/tryit.asp?filename=tryjquery_html_change_p

(Except you want them clicking on text instead of a file?)

I suggest you read the tutorial   http://www.w3schools.com/jquery/default.asp

Then if you still have questions after that, please ask.  Please try to be more specific.  However, if you were asking the JQuery can do what you want, I think the answer is Yes.

Here is the Root Question:

After the user edits the name, I want to update the html table
with out refreshing the screen.  

There are many files with Descriptions.  and a varable # of them.
So need to pass the file ID, so I know which one they are updating.
( I said this because Lots of examples are for single item per screen)

I have seen lots of Jquery, but do not want to do the work myself.
I feel someone here wants the points to give me a good Solution.
