I will try to extend the default setting.

Thank you so much.

Default parameter of the function editGridRow are documented unter http://www.trirand.com/jqgridw.....ditgridrow. You can change the default values using

jQuery.extend(jQuery.jgrid.edit, {/* new default values */});

Default values of any parameters of editGridRow including all you listed can you change in the way.

If use use a parameter of editGridRow directly in the call of the function editGridRow or indirect as parameter of navGrid then will be used the parameters and not default values. So all is very easy.

I use for examples in all jqGrids which I use in inline or form editing recreateForm: true. So I included ovewriting default parameters in one JavaScript file which I load in all my pages (in my master page). It maks the code which I write for every grid shorter.

I see no performance problems with the usage of default parameters.

You mean if I use form editing and I don't extend the default setting, I have to define "recreateFrom:true" as a part of "navGrid" call inside of preEdit, preAdd parameters. This is the only way to set "recreateFrom:true". I can't change it later?

How about the other properties and functions, for example:"topinfo", "bottominfo","closeAfterAdd","reloadAfterSubmit". Can they be changed?

If I extend the default setting of jQuery.jgrid.edit, it means all the subsequent grid use it. Is there any performance problem?

Thanks,

I would you set recreateForm: true as you the general default setting. See http://stackoverflow.com/quest.....nbsp;which describe a problem which can be.

So you can do following

jQuery.extend(jQuery.jgrid.edit, {recreateForm: true});

The usage of

jQuery("#grid_id").jqGrid('editGridRow', rowid, properties);

would be also correct if you implement for example inline edit mode and call editGridRow manually inside of onSelectRow or  ondblClickRow enevt handler. If you use form editing then you call editGridRow method not direct. To be able to forward the value recreateForm:true to editGridRow you should do this as a part of `navGrid` call inside of prmEdit, prmAdd parameters:

jqGrid('navGrid', '#pager',
                         { edit: true, add: true, del: false, search: true },
                         { recreateForm: true }, // use default settings for edit
                         { recreateForm: true }, // use default settings for add
                         {}, // delete instead that del:false we need this
                         {multipleSearch : true}); // enable the advanced searching 

To make all more simple I suggest just set 

jQuery.extend(jQuery.jgrid.edit, {recreateForm: true});

at the beginning and forget about existing of this parameter.

Best regards
Oleg 

jQuery("grid").jqGrid({

   ...

   edit:{..., recreateFrom:true,...}

   ...

})

In some case, I want to change the recreateFrom. I tried the following ways to change it, but failed:

1) jQuery("#grid").jqGrid("setGridParam",{recreateForm: true}).

2) jQuery("#grid").jqGrid("editGridRow", "new", {recreateForm: true})

Anybody who knows is there any other way to change this value? 

Thanks,

Stephen
