PREVIOUS COMMENT WAS: Actually, to add: IE8 fires once when entering the cell, before the text gets converted to a textbox. In FF4, you get that incorrect behavior and also the apparently more timely post-edit. So, IE8 does it once at the wrong time, and FF4 does it twice, once wrong. (And, in all cases, all params like celname are undefined.)

{ name: 'cnfamt', index: 'cnfamt', classes:'yellow', align: 'right', sorttype: 'currency',
                formatter: 'currency',
                formatoptions: { decimalSeparator: ".", thousandsSeparator: ",", decimalPlaces: 2, prefix: "$"},
                editable: true,
                editoptions:{
                    beforeSubmitCell : function(rowid,celname,value,iRow,iCol) {
                        alert(rowid + '/' + celname + '/' + value + '/' + iRow + '/' + iCol);
                    }
                }
            }

What I want is that, before the cell value gets posted, I want to add a value into the posted data set. Currently it posts the column name, the value and the row id, but I need to add the record id, which is stored as a value in another column (hidden) of the same row.

So, I hang a fucntion off the beforeSubmitCell event, but it seems to fire at the wrong time. It fires when the cell gets into edit mode, not when the cell is edited by the user and the return key is then pressed. Also, all five parameters come in as undefined in the alert().
