jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Hi:

  Let me put the code I'm using:

$("#milestone_dates_table41").jqGrid({

    datatype: "json",

    height: 'auto',

    autowidth: true,

    url: '/dashboard_dev.php/getMilestoneDates/41',

    colModel:[

        {name: 'id', hidden: true, index: 'id', editable: true },

        {name:'f1', label: 'Milestone', sortable: false, id: 'milestone'},  

       {name:'f2', label: 'f2', sortable: false, editable: true, sorttype:"date", index: 'f2' },

    ],

    onSelectRow: function(id) { 

     if(id && id!==lastsel_milestone41) { 

         jQuery('#milestone_dates_table41').jqGrid('restoreRow',lastsel_milestone41); 

         jQuery('#milestone_dates_table41').jqGrid('editRow', id, true, pickdates );

         lastsel_milestone41=id; 

         } 

     },

    imgpath: gridimgpath,

    multiselect: false,

    caption: "Milestone dates",

    editurl: "/dashboard_dev.php/projectUpdateMilestoneDate?project_id=41",

    rowList:[],

    pager: "#milestone_dates_table41_pager"                  

}).navGrid("#milestone_dates_table41_pager", { add: false, edit: false, search: false, del: false } );

function pickdates(id){ 

jQuery("#"+ id + "_f2", "#milestone_dates_table41" ).datepicker( {dateFormat:"mm/dd/yy"} ); 

} 

The problem is that the datepicker shows allright, but I have to hit the enter key several times in order to get the data posted to the server

Hi:

  Actually I solved my problem in a not so fancy way, but still... what I did is this: I added a save and a cancel button next to the input field, so I have a way to trigger the save and restore methods.

  I believe it would be good to have something like that as default when you specify "false" as usekeys options...

  Another thing I had trouble with is that I had a model with several columns, in which the first wasn't supposed to be editable, but with that configuration the browser would do strange things with the datepicker, like only displaying the calendar after a few clicks inside the input box and switching to another window... The only way I figured to solve this was to make this column editable (id), but since it's hidden, it worked fine for me...
