in the php file, when the user logs in I set a JS variable vIsAdmin="TRUE".

in the file mycustom.js I check that variable and i create the pager accordingly.

Probably there is a better way to do it, but this way it works too....

thank you for answering. No, it's not a jqgrid problem, the grid works perfectly.It's just that I am not able to change the possibility to edit/insert/delete records AFTER the grid creation.

So you are saying I should create 2 grids identical, one which I can edit and the other locked and then decide which one to show depending if the user is logged or not?

Isn't there a way to link to the grid from php and just change the property of the grid?

Sorry if the question is stupid, I'm very new in web programming. It would be great if you could provide me with a couple of detailed lines..I can't find any example anywhere..

btw, thank you so much for this great grid!

Thank you so much,

Lorenzo

I do not think it is a jqGrid problem. Just a opinion

Maybe you will need to define somethings like this

$grid1 = <<<GRID1

here first code

GRID1

$grid2 = <<<GRID2

here second code

GRID2;

And the echo the $grid1 and $grid2 depending on conditions

I'm using php and a mysql db to manage user login in my website.

For now, just administrators can login in the website, so in PHP i can check if they are logged in using:

if($session->logged_in){

}

I'm using the file mycustom.js to load create the jqgrid like this:

jQuery(document).ready(function(){

jQuery("#griglia-negozi").jqGrid('navGrid','#pager-griglia-negozi', {refresh: true, edit: false, add: false, del: false,

search:false},{},{},{},{multipleSearch:true, closeAfterSearch: true, closeOnEscape: true},{});

);

the problem is that I would like the grid to be editable if a user is logged in, but I don't know how to integrate a php "if clause" in the file mycustom.js to achieve something like:

<?php

if($session->logged_in){

?>

jQuery(document).ready(function(){

jQuery("#griglia-negozi").jqGrid('navGrid','#pager-griglia-negozi', {refresh: true, edit: false, add: false, del: false,

search:false},{},{},{},{multipleSearch:true, closeAfterSearch: true, closeOnEscape: true},{});

);

<?php

} else

{

?>

jQuery(document).ready(function(){

jQuery("#griglia-negozi").jqGrid('navGrid','#pager-griglia-negozi', {refresh: true, edit: true, add: true, del: true,

search:true},{},{},{},{multipleSearch:true, closeAfterSearch: true, closeOnEscape: true},{});

);

<?php

} 

?>

Could you help me?

thank you,

Lorenzo
