http://pastebin.com/1Yyf07xA  has functions like _addIdsToSelectedCache and _removeIdsFromSelectedCache which are not available in source code, will you be able to help here ?

Can't it be included in Core JQGrid plugin ?

Try as I might, I cannot get selections from different pages to persist. I can confirm the 'myselectedrows' array contains the correct values from the old page, but I do not know what needs to be done to reapply them on the new page. I was hoping the following events would enable me to get this working, but it did not work.

onPaging: function() { },
gridComplete: function() { },

What steps should I follow to get this working? Basically, I would like to be able to move back and forth on the grid pages, see previous selections and when a 'submit' button is clicked be able to pass all the values back to the server. Any help would be very much appreciated.

I just downloaded 3.6.5 and it works great. In case anyone else runs into the same problem, if the method calls still appear to return [], and you are using a jsonReader to enable jqGrid to read your results, make sure the the "id" field points to a unique field. Otherwise jqGrid will be unable to retrieve information about which boxes are checked.

Best,

Keith

Thanks Tony 🙂

Are there any plans to automate this in future versions of jqGrid?

Hello,

Sorry, it is a my fault. I do not have looked into the code.

It is true. This will not work. I have fixed this and you will have the change tomorrow in GitHub.

Best Regards

Hi Tony,

The above still returns "[]" for me in 3.5.6. Does it work for you?

Best,

Keith

Hello,

This is true, since of the reference to the selected columns which after populating we become empty array.

To work this you should do something like this:

onPaging: function() {

var myselectedrows = $.extend([], $("#grid").jqGrid("getGridParam", "selarrrow"));

}

Best Regards

Hi Tony,

I am also trying to achieve the same effect of preserving row selection across pages. I tried following you above suggestion with something like:

onPaging: function () {

$("#grid").jqGrid("getGridParam", "selarrrow");

but the result of the above method call is always an empty array, regardless of many items are checked.

I looked through some of the other supported methods, but didn't see anything else that seemed helpful for this purpose.

Is there any chance that this could become part of the the base jqGrid? My guess is that for people using multi-select, it is more helpful to preserve selection across pages and also return items from all pages when the selected items are returned.

Thanks!

Hello,

You will need to use onPaging event again with getGridParam to obtain the selected rows in multiselect mode.

I have a multi-select jqGrid that I'm using and the user has asked me if there is a way to maintain the list of checked items after the next page is selected. Is there a way to accomplish this with jqGrid? Thank you.
