Dear Tony,

Is there any way to clone an existing jqGrid without knowing the original jqGrid properties? I mean: to create a new jqGrid by copying all the properties from an existing grid.

Is there a function to retrieve all the properties of an existing grid, then maybe also override some of them, and then to create a new grid with these properties?

Thanks!

Sorin

Hello,

As Rumen say - it is not a good idea.Moreover this will not work, since the grid is enclosed in many div's

you can

var mygrid = {...her jqGrid properties};

$("#grid1").jqGrid(mygrid);

.....

$("#grid2").jqGrid(mygrid);

jQuery clone is only intended to clone HTML elements, as far as I can tell. It is just not possible to clone complex object like jqGrid with that.

As far as I can tell, this can be relatively easy to do if you just replicate your jQuery init script (with different IDs).

Hello

Is it possible to clone Grid ?

I tried to clone "clients" grid to "clients_tmp":

jQuery("#clients_tmp").clone( jQuery("#clients") );

It doesn't throw error but do nothing.

Thanks
