DRHansen on formatter/unformat functions for checkbox

Tony,

First off, thanks for jqGrid!

jqGrid version: 3.5.2.

When using formatter/unformat functions for checkboxes the returned value currently MUST BE A STRING due to the code in grid.formedit.js

Somewhere around line 674 the unformat is called to set tmp:

tmp = $.unformat(this,{colModel:cm[i]},i);

Then later around line 707 in the checkbox case, the first thing that's done is

tmp = tmp.toLowerCase();

That causes a Javascript error when the unformat code returned an integer for tmp (as I was doing) rather than a string.

I've since fixed my unformat code, but a simple cast to string before doing the .toLowerCase() also worked and seems a simple and reasonable fix.

tmp = '' + tmp;

If I'm not all wrong about this, I'll be happy to put some advisory comments in the doc.

Thanks again,

David
