No problem.

For static content I found a solution that doesn't rely on jqGrid. In case anybody is looking for something similar, here is a link to it: http://ideamill.synaptrixgroup.....page_id=16

It's not truly a grid, but a table solution. It also might spark some ideas in how to add static content filtering into jqGrid.

Hello,

Local filtering and search currently is not supported.

Regards

I have static data in an array but still need to be able to filter it with the “search” feature. Is this possible? I'm using JqGrid 3.3.1.

For example, I want my grid set up to populate with data from a static array (not pulling from a database) or an XML file would work too. I want the colModel set so that each column has a dropdown list that will allow me to display only the rows relevant to the dropdown selection (similar to how the Tax column is treated in the demo for Multiple Toolbar Search.

Currently however I can't set up a database on the server my organization is on so will need to have the data in an XML file or an array but I am uncertain how to proceed with filtering the static content. It looks like the Search function uses _Replace and an SQL query when it runs the search through a db, but how would this work with static data?
