How do I add custom toolbar to jqgrid.
Why I need this:
Instead of default filter toolbar I would like to introduce toolbar (Custom search options, not like editoptions:..) in my current project.
How do I implement it instead of using default filter toolbar
The searching functionality have many options (like searchoptions) which are different from editoptions. The method filterToolbar use the options and have many additional possibilities of customization, for example beforeSearch callback function. You don't describe your existing requirements, but I recommend you to examine the existing functionality of the searching toolbar more exactly before you will try to implement your own one.
If you do need implement your own custom toolbar, you can use toolbar option of jqGrid to add an empty bar above or below of the grid. You will be full responsible for the filling of the content of the toolbar.

I wish to create dynamic dropdown, meaning the value of the second dropdown changes with the change in selection on the first. I was looking through the Dojo docs and it seems there are 3 different widgets that I can use,
dijit/form/ComboBox
dojox/form/DropDownSelect
dijit.form.Select
Now I am confused as to which one should i use for creating Dynamic DropDowns?
You can choose anyone depending upon what extra features you want. While dijit.form.Select is your normal HTML select, combobox and filteringselect offer more features.
Follow http://kennethfranqueiro.com/2010/06/combobox-vs-filteringselect/ for a comparison between the two. You can also play with them to know how they work.
I had used FilteringSelect in my app for the same behavior as need.
Differences between dojo dropdown :
Select It is simple combobox like select in HTML with no validation
and not provide any search facility inside select options.
ComboBox It is pure form of combobox and name as ComboBox again it
will not provide any default validation but it provide search
facility within its options.
FilteringSelect It is an advance form of select have default
facility of validation and search facility. And it also has property
to take value as input tag take value in HTML.
In dojo you can also try custom validation which is provided inside dojox library. I hope it will help you.
How Custom Search Panel In jQgrid example I Want translate search operation example equal to = or greaderthen > or ... or translate to arabic,
thanks all
I have perused the jqGrid wiki and found two pages which might help you.
This page talks about custom searching and its parameters. Notice that you can bind to the beforeSearch event and fire your own function, and parse the search text to accomplish whatever you want.
There is also toolbar searching, which allows custom filtering on each field in your data table. Depending on your solution, you may want to pursue this path. Again, this option also has events that you can bind to if the default search options don't fit your need.
Is there a way in JQ-Grid to display an icon for each row which will open a drop down menu with a list of actions/links?
Thanks
There are no standard implementation of the behavior. You can implement what you need with respect of the custom formatter.
You can try to use formatter:'actions' as alternative way. In the answer I shows how to extend standard actions buttons with custom buttons. In another answer (see the demo) I shows one more way how to implement very close behavior as formatter:'actions' do but with respect on another events.
I need help with jQuery jqGrid and subgrid.
I am able to create a Subgrid inside my jqGrid succesfully. The next step is to add a custom option list in the main grid navbar somewhere so that depending on which option the user selects, a different kind of subgrid opens.
Is it possible to add custom options to the jqGrid navigation bar?
The only standard way to add custom element in the navBar is to use navButtonAdd method which add a button.
If you want to add another custom HTML elements you have to do this manually with respect of some jQuery function like jQuery.append. I recommend you to read the code of navSeparatorAdd and navButtonAdd functions.
I'm currently using jqGrid and ASP.Net MVC. With my current project, my goal is to provide a grid of data to the end user, and they can then edit this. The data is machine-generated, and the users will be confirming if the machine is correct or not.
I think ideally for speed, I'd like to provide a row per item, with a radio button group as the editable. The users could then pick from the values 'Unknown', 'Correct', 'Incorrect'.
As there will be a lot of data, I'd also like to provide a control of some type that can set all rows in the grid to one of the available radio button choices, for the user experience.
Given that there seems to be no native support for this in jqGrid, I wanted to ask if anyone has had any experience writing something like this, and whether this is achievable and reliable, or whether I should stick with the drop-down editable approach that is native to jqGrid.
To implement radio button as the editable instead of the standard drop-down editable approach you can use so named custom editing feature of jqGrid (see http://www.trirand.com/jqgridwiki/doku.php?id=wiki:common_rules#custom). This allows you to create any custom control to edit the cell value. An example of the implementation you can find here: Add multiple input elements in a custom edit type field.
To set all rows in the grid to one of the available radio button choices you can use either a control outside of jqGrid or add an additional custom button in the navigation bar (see http://www.trirand.com/jqgridwiki/doku.php?id=wiki:custom_buttons). If you search for navButtonAdd you will find a lot of examples how to implement this, for example, Jqgrid: navigation based on the selected row. Because you use server based data, you can just call a method on the server to make the changes which you need and then call trigger("reloadGrid") to refresh jqGrid data.
