I guess it still works as long as the cell contents can be recognized by jQuery as an HTML fragment, but that's not usually going to be the case. It works for a select, which is probably what Tony's been working on most recently, but not for '' or 'foo', for example, and cell values like 'input' or 'body' are going to really mess things up. And I've been getting warnings when I have cells containing characters like '/' and '!' that are invalid in selectors.

I'm not sure what the fix is, but the first argument probably needs to be either the jQuery object corresponding to the cell (or maybe the DOM object), in which case it shouldn't be called "cellval", or a string with the contents of the cell, in which case $.unformat() needs to handle it differently.

It looks to me like getRowData is broken, but perhaps Im missing something obvious.

getRowData calls: $.unformat($(this).html(),{colModel:$t.p.colModel[i]},i)

Note, the first parameter is the html contents of the cell, as a string.

But $.unformat then uses $(cellval).text() - which for me is always returning the empty string (since, in general cellval wont be a selector that matches anything on the page!).

Im guessing that getRowData should just pass in this (it fixes the problem for me)

All the built in formatters are handled there, except for “select”.

Also, shouldn't there be an equivalent to getRowData that /does/ unformat the data (or did I miss it)? I would have expected it to be the default… the data gets formatted when its put into the grid, shouldnt it be unformatted when you take it out? Formatting is pure presentation – Im normally interested in the data value, rarely how its being displayed.

This is true. In the grid we have the string, but not the value. The getRowData return what is in the column.

Use custom unformat function to do that - (I f you go to do this use the last development from GitHub or wait for some days.)

eg

<select>

<option value='1'>Value 1</option>

<option selected='selected' value='2'>Value 2</option>

</select>

I expect it to return '2' but instead its returning 'Value 2'

Is this a bug or do I need to get the value a different way?

Cheers
