The alternative in this way is to use xmlstring.

Read the docs

I saw those posts, where people are using web-server and someone suggested them to add 'text/xml' as content type in response.

But, I thought that it should not be applicable for me as I am using a local file.

can we call it a bug or limitation?

Anyways, thanks for making such a useful plug-in. I really appreciate your effort.

If you do this as local file, this will not work in IE. Also there are a lot

of messages regarding this in jquery google grup.

To work this in IE you should use web server.

I have prepared an xml grid. It works pretty fine in FF2 but no grid data is shown in IE6.

Here the code snippet -

$("#ModifyEUGTable").jqGrid({
    datatype: 'xml',
    url : 'eug_sample.xml',
    editurl: "server.php",
    colNames:['Destination Customer ID','Destination Domain ID', 'Destination EUG', 'Relation Type', 'Inter-EUG SSAR auto-generation'],
    colModel :[
          {name:'customerId', index:'customerId', width:160, xmlmap:'customerId'},
          {name:'domainId', index:'domainId', width:160, xmlmap:'domainId'},
          {name:'destinationEug', index:'destinationEug', width:130, xmlmap:'destinationEug', editable:true, editrules:{required:true}},
          {name:'relationType', index:'relationType', width:100, xmlmap:'relationType', editable:true, edittype:'select', editoptions: { value: "T:Transmit Only; R:Receive Only; B:Both" } },
          {name:'ssar', index:'ssar', width:220, sortable:false, xmlmap:'ssar', editable:true, edittype:'select', editoptions: { value: "Disable:Disable; Enable:Enable"} }],
    rowNum:10,
    rowList:[10,20,30],
    viewrecords: true,
    imgpath: '../../plugins/jqGrid/themes/basic/images',
    loadonce: true,
    caption: 'Modify Inter EUG Relations',
    toolbar: [true,'top'],
    onSelectRow: function(id){
          if(id && id!==lastSel){
        jQuery('#ModifyEUGTable').restoreRow(lastSel);
        lastSel=id;
          }
          jQuery('#ModifyEUGTable').editRow(id, true);
    },
    xmlReader: {
          root:"rows",
          row:"row",
          repeatitems:false,
          page:"EUGRelations>currentpage",
          total:"EUGRelations>totalpages",
          records:"EUGRelations>totalrecords",
          id:"asin"    }
  });

XML file -

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<EUGRelations>
    <currentpage>1</currentpage>
    <totalpages>10</totalpages>
    <totalrecords>20</totalrecords>
    <rows>
        <row>
            <customerId>Customer001</customerId>
            <domainId>2</domainId>
            <destinationEug>EUG101</destinationEug>
            <relationType>T</relationType>
            <ssar>Disable</ssar>
            <asin>10101</asin>
        </row>
        <row>
            <customerId>Customer001</customerId>
            <domainId>2</domainId>
            <destinationEug>EUG102</destinationEug>
            <relationType>T</relationType>
            <ssar>Disable</ssar>
            <asin>10102</asin>
        </row>
    </rows>
</EUGRelations>

can anyone help me find out why it doen't work in IE.

Thanks,

Saurabh
