Dear All,
We are happy to inform you that the long awaited 3.8 version is out.
The 3.8 Release is aimed to be a VERY MAJOR Update to out jqGrid JavaScript library.

The biggest news is the availability of Grouping. You can now group rows by column, including group footer summaries with or without grand total.

Version 3.8 now also brings OFFICIAL support for the latest jQuery core release 1.4.2+ and jQuery UI ThemeRoller 1.8.2+. From this moment onwards, we will provide support for these releases only and upwards, but only in jqGrid 3.8+. Older versions of jqGrid are reported to work fine with jQuery 1.3.x and ThemeRoller 1.7.x, but we HIGHLY RECOMMEND using 3.8 if you use the latest jQuery releases.

With every new minor release of 3.8 we will fix the following issues:

  • Duplicated id's when more than one grid is available in the page
  • Name-space related problems in the module grid.common.js This mean that every function in this module will be converted to jgrid name-space
  • In order to minimize the size of the library we will move a lot of unused methods to a separate file which then will be not available in 3.9 release.

We hope that with these changes we make the jqGrid one of the best grid component.

Here is the link to the demo:

Here are the demo files with the beta version

Enjoy
jqGrid Team

Hi,

Excited and a little dissapointed. If only the group totals showed in the group row so that you can see totals of collapsed groups! That way you have very nice overivew with drill down cababilities. Without it I'd be hacking the treegrid feature to give drill downs...

Otherwise looks great!

@Deanme,

Thaks for the recommendation. The grouping feature is designed so that we can do a lot of thing including your request.

We will see how to do this.

Kind Regards

Tony

if no rows come from the ajax server, the grouping grid shows some errors.

the sample data is

{"page":1,"records":0,"rows":[],"total":1,"userdata":null}

grid.base.js  row:1255

length is null or not object

Sweet!!!. Thanks guys. I've start a Grails plugin for jqGrid so the Grails community can use this wonderful component you have created. Anybody that is interested can find it here: http://aoathout.github.com/gra.....ls-jqgrid/ Right now it uses 3.7.2 but I'm planning on branching a 3.8 version tonight if I can make the time.

Just a little bug that I wanted to point out:

if you use Opera browser, when grouping rows while hiding the grouping column, the width of the headers and data don't match.

This can be seen in the demo.

Otherwise, this evolution is just amazing.

Hi,

Congratulations for your latest release, that was a feature our company was expecting for.

I've tested grouping and summaries and it works flawless for me (when perfectly configured of course). and I just want to point out something that would help in the release version.

Global summaries: It could be a boolean grid option, that uses summary properties in the colModel and presents a final summary independent of group summaries, and that option is independent with grouping options.

Thanks in advance, and congratulations again Cool

I agree with deanme, there needs to be an option so that when the group is collapsed the summary row can stay visible.  The only other thing I could possibly ask for is the ability to freeze columns so that larger tables with many columns can be represented w/o losing key context. 

Great job again.

So this is a beta, not a final release, right?  I see it was several times referred to simply as the "3.8 release," and other places as "the 3.8 beta".  So… which is it?  Normally I think of beta as being a modifier that is attached to a particular version number.  When it's out of beta, then the "beta" modifier goes away and the version number remains (unchanged).  So I'm a bit confused by seeing 3.8 both with and without the "beta" modifier :-)

In a similar vein, do you all consider this acceptable for use in production or should we wait for a subsequent release?  Any idea when we'll see a "3.8 stable" release?

Thanks!

Hello,

This is a beta, as of the original post. In this post we refer to 3.8 in several places, meaning that this will and is  a major release.

Sorry for confusion.

We hope to release this at beginning of September, 2010.

Kind Regards

Thanks for the clarification!

Would you classify this as ready for production use?  It seems different people have different meanings for the term "beta."  For instance, with Google "Beta" means "is less than four years old" it seems 🙂 Meaning, Google often applies the term "beta" to otherwise stable software.

Would you add customer pager  function to this new version.

I really appreciate and enjoy jqGrid and use it in some projects.But my customers are very strict about pager,they want to a pager style like  "pre-ten  11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20  next-ten".

I find no method to extend jqGrid to support the pager style. Maybe I could use loadComplete event for customization ,just like 

$(document).ready(function() {

        $("#myTable").jqGrid({

              datatype: 'json',

              pager:"#pager",

              …………….,

loadComplete:function(data) { var nav=$("#pager"+"_"+"left","#pager");

$("#dvCustomerPager",nav).remove();

var dvCustomerPager=$("<div id='dvCustomerPager' ></div>");

var curPage=parseInt($("#myTable").getGridParam("page"));

var itr;

for(var c=-4;c<6;c++)

{

        itr=(curPage+c);

        dvCustomerPager.append($("<a href='#'  style='margin:0px 3px 0px 3px;'  onclick='gotoPage("+itr+")'>"+itr+"</a>"));

}

 nav.append(dvCustomerPager);

 }

});

});

……………….

function gotoPage(thePage)

{

      $("#myTable").setGridParam({page:thePage}).trigger("reloadGrid");

}

But I must copy these codes for every jqGrid instance .I want to find some methods to  extend the $.fn or set $.jgrid.defaults.loadComplete so that it  does effects for every jqGrid instance. So could you give a extention point to support customiztion pager. Or you may add another parameter  that pass jqGrid instance  itself in loadComplete event ,so that I can get the jqGrid instance and get its parameters. Or you may provide a afterPaging event and pass jqGrid instance to it , and then I could do something for customization pager.

In addition , I think a getNavBar() method that returns jgGrid instance's navigation bar(pager element)  is neccessary.Because you may change navbar's id in the later version and my extension may lose efficacy .But if you provide getNavBar() , my extension will always work independent of any new version.

Thank you!

I am currently using datatable jquery plug-in, and have run into a road block i.e. I can not freeze the first few left most columns while scrolling horizontally on a table that has lot of columns, like the Freeze Column feature in Excel. I know there have been lot of requests in this forum for this feature. 

I just want to know if this feature is available in the latest 3.8 Beta, and if not when we can expect it. It would also greatly help me if you could, may be point me to any other jquery plug in that has this feature now. Our clients need this badly.

I am planning to ditch using datatable, and use your datagrid plug in, but I would like to know how soon we can expect this freeze feature.

The new group by feature is really great. Can't wait to see the final version. I have to agree with @brycekmartin and @deanme, it's really important to be able to show the summary information on the same row.

Will the final version support multiple column grouping? I would love to be able to group by more than one column in a nested way. I could use treeGrid but that's not "true" grouping.

The feature that you asked is realized here:

There is an issue with the 'Search Overlay'.  See demo example 'Remote data (sorted).  The Search overlay is appearing with an element style of display: none

This is however a wonderful product and looking forward to see the final version.
