I have a chained select box in a form edit window. I have a function that populates the second select box (scategory) based on the value of the first one (category). This function is based on this example.

I attach it to the colModel like this:

{name:'category', editoptions:{
    dataUrl:'SELBX_CAT.php?account='+$('#account').val(),
    dataEvents:[{
        type:"change",
        fn:function(e){
            subcategory_selectbox(e);
        }
    }]
},…

This works perfectly, but I can't figure out how to pass that same variable "e" from other places. For instance, I have a beforeShowForm function that I would like to be able to call subcategory_selectbox() from, but I don't know what to pass. How do I pass the same variable "e" as the dataEvents function does?

Also, on my account select box, I have the following function to trigger onChange:

$('#account').change(function(){
    $('#transGrid').setColProp('category',{
        editoptions:{
            dataUrl:'SELBX_CAT.php?account='+$('#account').val()
        }
    });
    $('#transGrid').setGridParam({postData:{account:$('#account').val()}});
    $('#transGrid').trigger('reloadGrid');
});

This does the trick as far as basing the values of the category select box on the currently selected account, but it no longer executes the dataEvents function. I even tried including the same dataEvents code from the second code snippet in this post, but it didn't work either. How can I keep the category select box based on the account select box without eliminating the dataEvents function?
