jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Hi Tony.

I test treegrid with example from http://www.trirand.com/blog/jq.....grid.html.

I copy html and data from New in version 3.4 -> Tree Grid Adjacency model.

Result:

In 3.8.2 it'ok. But in version from github this result.

I use jquery 1.5.1 jquery-ui 1.9m4.

Hi Tony.

I update all files from github.

Thanks Tony for fixing problem 🙂

There is a bug with custom search in jQuery 1.5.1 and tested versions 3.6.5 and 3.8.2 of jqGrid. When I press Enter to trigger the search:

1. I get a "uncaught exception: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [name=actividad:descripcion]" in firebug
2. The page reloads with the GET parameters in the URL

Here's the setup and test data: http://pastebin.com/v8tBEDTL)

Hello Tony,

I suggest to make small changes in the grid.base.js to allow to use data parameter for jqGrid to fill the Tree Grid. The change is very simple. I suggest to replace the line 1400 (return;) to the following

After then one can load the tree in both modes using the data parameter without needs to use additional addJSONData call after the grid or inside of loadComplete. See the demo and compare it with this one. Warning: I don't tested the changes together with local XML (xmlstring) datatypes.

Moreover, please read this my recent suggestion. During writing the answer on the stackoverflow it was clear for me, that one can make only one binding to the "click" event for the whole grid body (see here). Inside the event handle one can examine the clicked object and dispatch the call to the corresponding event handle, for example to the handle used to expand/collapse the tree node or to the handler of the actions formatter. It will work exactly like you dispatch the click to the onCellSelect event handle. The same behavior for the general formatter which need the click handle one can for example use new custom event 'cellClick.jqGrid' one for the whole grid. For example one can bind 'cellClick.jqGrid' event to the grid and call ts.trigger('cellClick', [rowid, iCol]) inside of the main click handle. If you need I can post a code example which will better explain what I mean.

By the way in the case one not only save some resourses need for the onclick event handle for all noded of the corresponding column. One don't need to make any jQuery call with the DOM element of the cell during filling of grid contain or use and "onclick" textes, so the code will stay unobtrusive like the rest of the jqGrid code. One can use gridview:true without any problem (but it is now already so).

Please Tony, think about the way. It seems very interesting for me.

Best regards

OK Tony, I see that local sorting is not work correctly. The first problem that I ised parent:"" instead of parent:null, but it is not the only problem.

Nevertherless it seems to me that Tree Grid is very close to support pure local data. Even with the restriction to have no local sorting it could be interestung.

To tell the truth I have almost no expirience in Tree Grid, but I am sure, that you can easy find the palaces in the code which made problems and probably also quickly fix the problem. I find the full support of local data would be fery fine feature of the jqGrid.

Best regards
Oleg
