earachefl on After re-ordering columns, sorting maps data to original columns

Finally stumbled on the solution. I needed to pass the original order of the columns as an array to remapColumns, and also include the last param.:

sortable: {

update: function (perm) {

$("#mainGrid").jqGrid("remapColumns", [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12], true, false);

}

I've been tearing my hair out on this one. Whether I try to implement column re-ordering via header dragging or via the column chooser plugin, after re-ordering the columns, clicking on any column header to sort results in the sorted columns being loaded into their original positions in the table. I've tried the suggestions posted here but nothing seems to work. Using the sortable method:

sortable: {

options: {

stop: function(event, ui){

// have tried putting the remapcolumns function inside stop() to no avail

$("#mainGrid").jqGrid("remapColumns", [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12], true);

}

update: function (perm) {

* code to save the new colmodel goes here

// the following line doesn't seem to do anything... just seems to return an array identical to 'perm'

$("#mainGrid").jqGrid("getGridParam", "remapColumns");

// if included, the next line causes the headers to not move

$("#mainGrid").jqGrid("remapColumns", perm, true);

// this alternate allows them to move, but the newly sorted columns still get remapped to their original position

$("#mainGrid").jqGrid("remapColumns", [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12], true);

}

After reordering, I can see that the data is being returned from the server in the expected order after sorting. What am I missing?

BTW, this is using jqGrid 4.4.1.
