With a bit more time I will look into jqModal a little more and hopefully will be able to harness it's power alongside jqGrid's 😉

Cheers,

Unfortunately for this current project I'm on a tight deadline and therefore cannot explore as much as I would like, but I have another project waiting and will be hopefully using jqGrid extensively.

I will post back on that project later with some fun things for newcommers like me. (Just to make the learning cureve less steep 😉 )

The alert modal is created only once and you can use the every time

you want. The id is alertmod. Something like

in afterShowForm event

var masterid = $(”#master”).getGridParam(”selrow”)

if(masterid == null ){

// the editing modal is combination of editmod + id of the grid

// suppose you have detailgrid with detail id then

$(”#editmoddetail”).jqmHide();

ViewModal(”#alertmod”);

}

Or a better way is to define custom buttons and handle this logic.

without using afterShowForm

Back with another question. Even though the title practically says it all, here goes a description of what i need to do.

I'm implementing something similar to the master/detail demo however with the ability to add/edit records. I have a check in place to see if a user has selected a row in the master grid before adding a new record in the detail grid.

Currently, I have an alert in place warning that a row was not selected. I would like however to implemente something similar to the modal dialogue along the lines of what happens when we don't select a row before editing. In other words, display the modal alert and cancel the add action.

Thanks for any help.

Cheers,
P.
