Can someone please post a more complete example of how to use jqGridImport? I am new to jqGrid and can't get jqGridImport to work. jqGridExport works fine but not jqGridImport. I even tried importing testxml.xml but it doesn't work either.
Thanks, Jerry

1. jQuerry version - 1.3.1
2. jqGridVersion - 3.4.1
3. OS - Windows XP SP3
4. browser - Firefox 3.0.6
5. Problem - I can't get jqGridImport to work. I tested with both testxml.xml as well as my own .xml file. Firebug shows the .xml file coming back from the request but the Grid configuration does not change.
What am I doing wrong?
6. Code and data if possible -
<script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(document).ready(function (){
jQuery("#list").jqGrid({
url:'cem_db_if.php',
colNames: ['Cemetery','County', 'First mame', 'Middle name', 'Other name(s)',
'Surname/family','Birth date','Death date'],
colModel :[
{name:'cem_name', index:'cem_name', width:200, align:'center'},
{name:'cem_county_name', index:'cem_county_name', width:100, align:'center'},
{name:'bur_fname', index:'bur_fname', width:100, align:'center' },
{name:'bur_mname', index:'bur_mname', width:100, align:'center' },
{name:'bur_maiden', index:'bur_maiden', width:100, align:'center' },
{name:'bur_sname', index:'bur_sname', width:100, align:'center'},
{name:'bur_birthdate', index:'bur_birthdate', width:100, align:'center'},
{name:'bur_deathdate', index:'bur_deathdate', width:100, align:'center'} ],
height:'auto',
pager: '#pager',
rowNum:10,
rowList:[10,20,30],
sortname: 'bur_sname',
mtype: 'POST',
postData:{table_name:"DT_Burial"},
viewrecords: true,
imgpath: 'themes/basic/images',
caption: 'TNGenWeb Cemetery Database - Burials'
}); //end grid
});//end ready
function burial() {
$("#list").jqGridImport({impurl:"testxml.xml", imptype: "xml"});
alert( $("#list").jqGridExport({exptype: "xmlstring"}) );
}//end burial
function cemetery() {
$("#list").jqGridImport({impurl:"cemetery.xml", imptype: "xml"});
alert( $("#list").jqGridExport({exptype: "xmlstring"}) );
}//end cemetery
</script>
...
<a href="javascript: void(0)" onclick="burial()">Test XML</a><br />
<a href="javascript: void(0)" onclick="cemetery()">Cemetery Table</a>

OK, sorry, I had some coding issues above. I am now able to get the testxml.xml file to load. I did this by not defining the grid in the ready() but instead loading from testxml.xml to start the grid.
Is the expected behavior of jqGridImport? I thought that I could use jqGridImport to change the Grid definition. It now appears that I can only use it for the intiial loading. Is this correct?

I didn't try, but maybe a
$(”#mytable”).trigger(”reloadGrid”);
or in your case:
function burial() {
$(”#list”).jqGridImport({impurl:”testxml.xml”, imptype: “xml”}).trigger("reloadGrid");
alert( $(”#list”).jqGridExport({exptype: “xmlstring”}) );
}//end burial
would help.
Cheers, jean

Jean,
Thanks for the suggestion but it didn't work. The Grid reloads but the configuration is not changed.

Hello,
If you want to do that you can use GridUnload method on constructed grid and then applay again import
