jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid - Topic: Sorting on the client side http://www.trirand.com/blog/?page_id=393/discussion/sorting-on-the-client-side Simple:Press Version 5.7.5.3 ScorpioN on Sorting on the client side http://www.trirand.com/blog/?page_id=393/discussion/sorting-on-the-client-side#p23484 Discussion http://www.trirand.com/blog/?page_id=393/discussion/sorting-on-the-client-side#p23484 Oleg, thank you for your reply. Actually, I do not need to increase a  performance. I can't use server sorting due to some external service restrictions. All I need is to show a message "wait..." to client immediately after user clicks on column header.

For example Google Chrome is much better as IE6 in the JavaScript performance. In any way you should understand that your requirement client side instead of the server side makes the sorting at least 1000 times slowly. Is it really what your customer want?

Do you use at least client side paging? It can improve the performance dramatically. Look at the old demos this and this and compare the sorting performance. Which web browser you use? Do you use gridview: true jqGrid parameter?

If you write about the performance, the full jqGrid definition or better the demo would help very much.

Best regards

I have about 500 records and I need to implement sorting on the client side(requirement). Sorting takes about 2-3 seconds and I need to show to client some message like "please, wait…". I'm trying to use jQuery blockUI plugin. I've implemented handler for onSortCol event, but message appears with a big delay. If I try to show alert – it appears immediately. If I try to show just some div with a text I have delay also. Can anybody help me? JQGrid version – 3.7.2.
