Hi Mark!

It seems to my Tony misunderstood your question. I hope if you define sortable parameter as an object instead of a boolean you can solve your problem. For example

sortable: {

options: {

stop: function(event, ui) {

var d = $("div.ui-jqgrid-sortable",$(ui.item));

alert ('Colomn "'+ d.text() + '" was reorded');

}

different options which can be used you can find in the list of options and events on http://jqueryui.com/demos/sortable. The new column order you can get like Tony as described.

Best regards
Oleg

Hello,

Look at remapColumns method and array parameter into the docs.

basically you can do

var reorder = jQuery("#mygrid").jqGrid('getGridParam','remapColumns');

I am trying to keep track of the column order after reordering the columns but can't find a way to do this. What event is called when columns are reordered? If I can find the event maybe I can add a custom handler to track and save the column order so users can store the column order as a preference.
