This will not work if you settings reloadAfterSubmit is set to true. It is some task for you why is this happen 🙂 (it is all connected with the way that you call trigger in afterSubmit)

I recommend you to use afterComplete event in form editing to sort the new inserted row - i.e call trigger("reloadGrid") in this event

I am trying to figure out how to do sorting using datatype jsonstring and form editing with multiple select using jqgrid 3.5 beta version.

When the first time the grid loads up the sorting is fine. But after add, edit or delete ( i am using multiple select for delete) the grid soting goes off.

I am using struts 2 to load up the data, edit , add, delete. The server return data in a jsonstring. I do not do any sorting on server side. I want all the sorting on the client side.

I have afterSubmit function

afterSubmit:function reloadGrid(data,postdata){
                           result = data.responseText.split(":");
                          
                           if (result[0]=="error") {
                              
                               return [false,result[1],""];
                           }
                           if (result[0]=="ok"){
                               //alert(result[1]);

                             jQuery("#incomelist").trigger("reloadGrid");

                                
                                window.location.href=window.location.href;
                                return [true,"",""];
                               
                           }

But the sorting does not seem to work . I have tried mutliple things and read the documentation but I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong that the sorting is going off. I do window.location.href to refresh the page as I have totals which get updated.

I hope someone can help me 🙂
