Hello,

It is a little difficult to do that, but do you have idea how to pass these values to the server? To be a honest I never worked with multi-selects

hey Tony,

I just monkeyed with grid.formedit.js and added multi-select support. The idea was simply that instead of passing a single ID back to the server, it'd pass multiple IDs, and that's working nicely. Can I send you the code? it's in 2 separate chunks in that file. i'd assume you'd modify it to fit your style... i'm no javascript expert, just a server-side dude hacking away.

i guess i could say i got it mostly working. the one thing i haven't figured out yet is that the selected options get deselected when submitting the form or when closing the form and then reopening it for editing.

ok, so i think i figured that part out, too. I can send you a patch file if you like (created from subversion, comparing my fixes with the latest download).

cool, i emailed it to you.

One thing I noticed Tony: When I submit the form, the data I just changed reverts back to the original data. If I close the form and re-open it, it's as it should be. Now... the grid itself refreshes, but the editing form seems to revert all fields back to whatever they were when it originally loaded when clicking the row. (this is form editing, not inline editing).

Is there a parameter or something to get around that?

thanks.

Hello,

I should look into the changes deeper to tell you where is the problem.

By the way which version of jqGrid do you use?

What version was this implemented in. I tried to look thru the docs but cannot find reference to it. I would love to do a multi-select inside a dropdown box.

Thanks!

EDIT: I found the code to implement this. editoptions {multiple:true, size:3...}

Here is the code snipplet I used to get multiple:

{name:'segmentcode',editable:true, hidden:false, edittype:"select", formatter:'select', editrules:{required:false}, editoptions:{multiple:true, size:7, value:"<cfoutput>#getSegmentCodes#</cfoutput>"}},

The #getSegmentCodes# is a list of items returning from Coldfusion.

This grid is truly an amazing piece of code that has surpassed my expectations. Once again THANK YOU JQGRID!
