I understand now that jqGrid 3.6.4 includes the jqModal changes necessary to work with jQuery 1.4.2 so I am good to go. It seems that jQuery 1.4.2 should be the standard for jqGrid 3.6.4 and not jQuery 1.3.2 due to the browser detection issues.

Sorry, Oleg,

Yes, I should follow the protocol on reporting issues.

JqGrid 3.6.4

JQuery 1.3.2

jqModal 1.3 - part of 3.6.4

I also tried jqModal 1.4 and had the same issue. I just upgraded to jQuery 1.4.2 and the problem seems to be resolved. I will look closer at the issues that you report with jQuery 1.4.2.

Thanks for your offer of assistance but I think things are good for now.

jQuery 1.4.2 seems to have resolved the IE8 browser detection issue.

Hello jlb30504!

You didn't write anything about jqModal, jqGrid, jQuery UI and jqQuery version you use. There is some problem if you try to use jQuery 1.4. I posted /blog/?page_id=393/bugs/jqgrid-jquery-1-4/ described the problem and the solution. The problem is that jqModal.js use "$()" instead of "$(document)" which works in jQuery 1.3, but not works in jQuery 1.4, so the code of jqModal.js must be fixed. In the last version of jqGrid the problem is fixed, but the last r14 official version from http://dev.iceburg.net/jquery/jqModal/. So first of all verify that in you version of jqModal.js all "$()" replaced to "$(document)" and if you have nevertheless the problem, describe exactly your environment and post a small code example, which reproduced the problem.

Best regards
Oleg

This seems to be a browser detection issue. I looked at the jqModal source code and the code in question is only supposed to run for IE6. I commented it out and IE8 works fine in both standards and compatibility modes. It does not seem to impact IE6 for my application but it would be nice to understand what the real issue is here...

I am adding a custom search form using jqModal. Everything is working fine in FF, IE6, IE7, and IE8 compatibility mode. In IE8 standards mode, when I click my search button, the overlay shows but the dialog window does not. When I look at the styles, the dialog shows "display:none." If I clear this, the dialog window appears. I also see a Javascript error which points to this code:

setTimeout(function(){p("bind")},1);k.push(a)}else if(d.overlay>0)d.closeoverlay&&c.w.jqmAddClose(j);else j=e;c.o=j?j.addClass(d.overlayClass).prependTo("body"):e;if(q){b("html,body").css({height:"100%",width:"100%"});if(j){j=j.css({position:"absolute"})[0];for(var m in{Top:1,Left:1})<error here>j.style.setExpression(m.toLowerCase(),"(_=(document.documentElement.scroll"+m+" || document.body.scroll"+m+"))+'px'")}}if(d.ajax){a=d.target||c.w;g=d.ajax;a=typeof a=="string"?b(a,c.w):b(a);g=g.substr(0,1)=="@"?b(f).attr(g.substring(1)):

I added "<error here>" to show where the debugger cursor points.

I tried the later version of jqModal without jqGrid and have the same issue. This seems to be a jqModal issue but just wondering if anyone has any ideas how to address.

Thanks,

Jerry
