I can work with the ajaxifying Table -> Insert -> insert row. Currently
after each insertion, the page reloads to the "SQL" tab. Is it necessary. We
can modify it to insert and wait within the insert tab without redirecting
to the "SQL" tab. Please let me know your ideas on this.

If you find any other important feature to work other than this, please let
me know.

Thilanka.
