Hi,

As a general tip, I would like to suggest that you look at the data in options and rowObject. The easiest way is to just do console.log(options) with FireBug.

Hello. I have written several custom formatters for columns and they are working. However, one custom formatter that is given me an issue. If I do the following, then there are no syntax errors on the page when it loads and the alert message is displayed when I hover over a column cell for this column:

function FormatMenu(cellValue, options, rowObject) {
var cellHTML;
var spanID = 'spanTicker' + options.rowId;

cellHTML = "" + cellValue + " <img src='/applications/images/icons/action_arrow.gif' alt='' />";

return cellHTML;
}

function ShowMenuNew(tickerSpan, row) {

alert('ticker');

}

However, if I change the formatter function to pass in the rowObject or a JSON stringified version of the rowObject, I get a syntax error when the page loads:

function FormatMenu(cellValue, options, rowObject) {
var cellHTML;
var spanID = 'spanTicker' + options.rowId;

cellHTML = "" + cellValue + " <img src='/applications/images/icons/action_arrow.gif' alt='' />";

return cellHTML;
}

Or this:

function FormatMenu(cellValue, options, rowObject) {
var cellHTML;
var spanID = 'spanTicker' + options.rowId;

var rowString = JSON.stringify(rowObject);

cellHTML = "" + cellValue + " <img src='/applications/images/icons/action_arrow.gif' alt='' />";

return cellHTML;
}

Any particular reason for this? I have tried several JS escape character but have not been able to get this to work. Ideally, I would like to pass the rowObject or a JSON string of the rowObject from my formatter fucntion to the ShowMenuNew function. Any thoughts?

Thank.
