Question

//Hidden Input element
//my grid details:
$("#jqGrid").jqGrid({
url: '#Url.Action("EditedEventData", "Calendar" ,new{ })' + '?CountryId=' + #countryid + '&CityId=' + #cityid ,
async: true,
datatype: "json",
colModel: [
//label: "Edit Actions",
name: "",
width: 100,
formatter: "actions",
formatoptions: {
keys: true,
edit: true,
add: true,
del: true,
editOptions: {},
addOptions: {},
delOptions: {
url:'#Url.Action("RemoveEvent", "Calendar")'+ '?HolidayId='+document.getElementById('hdnEventId').value ,
//mtype: 'POST',
}// **here it is showing hdnEventId value empty**
}
}
],
onSelectRow : function(id){
console.log('inside onSelectRow');
alert(id);
document.getElementById('hdnEventId').value=id;
alert(document.getElementById('hdnEventId').value);
},
sortname: 'EventDate',
loadonce: true,
width: 750,
height: 200,
rowNum: 150,
pager: "#jqGridPager"
});
I am unable to access id of onSelectRow in delOptions action method.
So thought of taking a hidden html element and store the value but it is showing empty.
Thanks in advance

When a delete is performed the id is automatically send to the server. The parameter which is obtained via post is named id.
If you additionally want to fill a id on deleting a rows you can use some events to fill the field you want. These are described here. In the same documentation see the chapter What is posted to the server .
To fill the id in another field when a row is deleted I think the good choice is to use either serializeDelData or afterSubmit events - see the events on the same link.
When use these events the parameter postdata contain the id. By example in serializeDelData (set this in delOptions) this can look like
serializeDelData : function( postdata ) {
var id = postdata.id;
document.getElementById('hdnEventId').value=id;
return postdata;
}
Remember both events should return some params
