This is difficult to do since of the ajax requests - it is unknown which one will finished first - this for the first and this for the second grid.

One possible solution is to use ajaxGridOptions for the first grid where you set async to false and then use loadComplete to set the needed variables on the second.

Also in loadComplete you have the request as parameter

loadComplete : function(request) {

// convert here the json response to object, maybe using eval and

// then you have a object with all the needed information

// wher you can get it and pass tothe second grid using setGridParam

}

i need to load some data into a second grid based on a value from the first grid json response.

i added an extra vriable to the json response (type) of the first grid.

on loadComplete of the first grid i'm loading the second one. but how can i pass the variable type to the url of the second grid?

like this: data.php&type=biz

json response of the first grid:
{"rows":[
    {"id":"7","cell":["7","1","priv","","*","Kpn mobile","m_nl","","0.07",""]}
],
"records":"1",
"type":"biz"}

thank you in advance

regards,
