If you don't have it, you still can use $("tablew").width(), it's the same.

I tried to use this as your advice,

width:$(”tablew”).getDimensions().width-30,

However, it is even not show the grid.

Can you give me more detail or help me a demo code?

Thanks,

Tan

Then i don't understand your problem 🙂 But i think that problem is in setting width in colModel. You should use function setGridWidth to set width to whole grid.

My requirement is similar to yours.

I would like to have the width of the jqGrid to be 30 pixels less than the width of another table I use in my application. That table is defined in terms %

This is what I use in colModel definition

    width:$("tablew").getDimensions().width-30,

..

..

<table   border=1 id='tablew' style='width:100%;'>

I use prototype.js along with the jqGrid for my application I use the methods in prototype library to get the pixel size of the other table and subtract 30 to get the new size and dynamically assign this to jqGrid table

I was researching this few day ago (http://www.trirand.com/blog/?p.....msie-issue). Grid is built from two separate tables and width of the columns is computed and set to these columns. If you just set 100% width, browser computes width of these columns based on content which is different...So it would be nice mess 🙂

Another issue I faced is that: although I can set height: "100%", I cannot do it with width: "100%".

Question: is there anyway for me to set relative width (%) instead of fixing its value (pixel) ?

Thanks,

Tan
