Ok, i figured it out.

If you need to initially preselect and display a specific column, operator and/or a value in a search dialog…

1. For the default search dialog, simply add the grid option:

postData:{'filters':{'groupOp':'AND/OR','rules':[{'field':'column','op':'operator','data':''}]}},

to the grid definition.

2. For additional search buttons in the nav bar, use:

function setFilterByCustomer(grid){

$(grid+'_toppager_left').append("<input id='FilterByCustomer' type='button' value='Filter By Customer' style='height:22px; margin-left:5px;'/>");

$(grid+'_toppager_left input#FilterByCustomer').click( function(){

$(grid).jqGrid('setGridParam',{postData:{'filters':{'groupOp':'AND/OR','rules':[{'field':'column','op':'operator','data':''}]}}});

$(grid).jqGrid ('searchGrid', {options})

});

}

3. Substitute the colored parts with the appropreate info.

Hi all,

I added a new button on the nav bar to open an alternate search dialog using:

function setFilterByCustomer(grid){

$('#'+grid+'_toppager_left').append("<input id='FilterByCustomer' type='button' value='Filter By Customer' style='height:22px; margin-left:5px;'/>");

$('#'+grid+'_toppager_left input#FilterByCustomer').click( function(){

$(grid).jqGrid ('searchGrid', {multipleSearch:true});

});

}

All i want to do is have the search dialog pop up with a specific column and operator selected.

Is there an option i can use to select the a specific column and operator in the search dialog before or as it opens?

thanks
