Sorry but I do not understand what you exactley mean with dynamic colModel.

If you want this to happen after every request - i.e. after you use pagging sorting and etc., this is not possible.

The type of error definetley say that you have diffrent definition of colModel and colNames.

In order to solve this problem, you can remove the colNames definition from grid parameters and use the label attribute in colModel something like this.

I am trying to customize jqgrid into my project. What I wish to accomplish here is to define the grid the following way:

………………………

colModel: getColNames('<%= ViewData["myColsNames"] %>'),

colModel: getColModel(”'<%= ViewData["myColsNames"] %>'”),

……………………….

where the getColNames will return an array of strings with the column names that I saved in the view data and the getColModels returns similar array of strings in the format of

{name: 'act', index: 'act', width: 75, sortable: false },

…

When calling the colNames alone with hardcoded colModel, the table looks fine. But when I try using getColModels, it does not work and give an error messsage “length of colName <> colModel”. . I wonder how could I make the grid take the dynamically defined colModel?

Currently the getColModel procedure look like the following:

function(myinput){

//I am mocking up just one column in the table with the corresponding colName set to only one colmn

var t = “{name:” + “\\'Act\\',” + ” index: ” + “\\'Act\\'}”;

return t;

}

Do you have any idea how I could get over with this? I see that colModel is an array of objects. can I defined it on my own colModel dynamically like this?

Any help or comment is appreciated. Thank you!
