jqGrid cell editing need to position the error message dialog - jqgrid

I'm using jqGrid with cell editing. I have setup the colModel properties using the editrules option. Everything works fine in that if I edit a cell and try to save an invalid value the grid displays an error dialog, but I need to know how to position the error message dialog that comes up because in the case of my layout it ends up behind a video. I'm not quite sure how to hook into this and there don't seem to be any obvious options on how to do it.
In this case the dialog I would be trying to manipulate is the one with ID of info_dialog.
Also I'm using the clientArray option for cellsubmit.

I realize this is rather old but upon searching I didn't find any indication this might have been added since, so I figured now that I've figured it out I'd let everyone know how I solved the positioning of mine.
$(document).ready(function ()
{
$.jgrid.jqModal = $.extend($.jgrid.jqModal || {}, {
beforeOpen: centerInfoDialog
});
});
function centerInfoDialog()
{
var $infoDlg = $("#info_dialog");
var $parentDiv = $infoDlg.parent();
var dlgWidth = $infoDlg.width();
var parentWidth = $parentDiv.width();
$infoDlg[0].style.left = Math.round((parentWidth - dlgWidth) / 2) + "px";
}
From what I could find in the jqGrid source code, you can add a beforeOpen and an afterOpen. In my case I'd rather position the thing before it's displayed (duh!). Would be nice if there was a parameter to hook it up in the grid declaration, but this does the trick in the mean time.
I hope this helps someone! I spent most of my afternoon on this!

Default value of zIndex parameter of info_dialog is 1000. The function info_dialog from grid.common.js part of jqGrid will be called from grid.celledit.js without usage a 4-th parameter which can change the option.
So the best pragmatical way which I could recomend you is to decrease zIndex value of your div with the video so that it will be less then 1000.

How do you use the dc.redrawAll() function onclick?

I would like to be able to use the dc.js select menu (dc.selectMenu) in such a way that when I click on an element it gets the value of said element and that becomes the value of the select, once selected it should refresh the data as it normally would if you had just selected in the first place.
The problem I'm having is that I can set the value, but dc.redrawAll() seems to do nothing for me so I think I must be filtering wrongly, but I can't find much information online regarding how to do it other than simply using the filter method (not onclick).
I have tried to set the destination to whatever data-destination is which appears to be working, the value of the select does update when I check with console.log to check the value of the select menu, I then use the dc.redrawAll() function expecting it would filter based on the select option but it does nothing (not even an error in the console)
My function so far is looking like:
function select_destination(ndx) {
var destination_dim = ndx.dimension(dc.pluck('destination'));
var destination_group = destination_dim.group();
var destination = null;
document.addEventListener('click', function(e) {
if (!e.target.matches('.open-popup-link')) return;
e.preventDefault();
var destination = e.target.getAttribute('data-destination').toString();
document.getElementById('select-destination').value = destination;
dc.redrawAll();
});
dc.selectMenu('#select-destination')
.dimension(destination_dim)
.group(destination_group)
.filter(destination);
}
I would expect the graphs to update based on the select option but nothing happens, and I get no error message to go off either.
I suspect I'm using dc.redrawAll() wrongly as if I go to the console and type dc.redrawAll(); I get undefined but I'm really at a loss now and the documentation isn't really helping me at this point so I don't know what else to do.
they are bits of your code that I don't quite understand, for instance why do you have have filter(destination /*=null */)
anyway, So you want to filter the select menu? you can call directly the replaceFilter function with the value, as done in the source code:
menu.replaceFilter(destination);
dc.events.trigger(function () {
menu.redrawGroup();
});
See the source code for the full example of how it's done
https://dc-js.github.io/dc.js/docs/html/select-menu.js.html#sunlight-1-line-129
as for why it doesn't work, I have had some surprising results mixing d3 with pure dom js. Try to rewrite your even handler in d3, eg
d3.select('#select-destination').property('value', destination);
it's possibly that changing the value on the dom directly isn't triggering the change event.
My experience with d3 is that it works better to change the underlying data (call directly filter functions or whatever you want to do) and let dc redraw the needed rather than manipulating the dom directly

Extra row atop Kendo Treelist

We have a Kendo TreeList that works fine. Data shows, everything shows in the hierarchy correctly. The problem is, we need to group each two columns into another "superset" group.
The column headings (the names above are not real) are too long if not grouped as shown, and they lose useful context.
I tried adding an HTML table above the TreeList, but that doesn't look right. And it doesn't work if the user resizes the columns. Also the toolbar (for Excel export) is in the way, so it doesn't even look like it's part of the TreeList.
I also looked at wrapping the text in the columns, but from what I've seen, that's really iffy too.
It seems like an extra row as shown above (with the ability to merge some columns, like with an HTML table) is the best way to go. Despite scouring the web, I couldn't find a way to do this. Is this even possible with a Kendo TreeList?
This has been solved. Not by me, but by another developer on our team who's insanely good at JavaScript.
The trick is to edit the TreeList's HTML and CSS through JavaScript. You can bind to any event, but we do it on page load:
<script>
$(document).ready(function () {
// anything in here will get executed when the page is loaded
addTopRowToTreeList();
});
function addTopRowToTreeList() {
// grab the thead section
// your HTML may be different
var foo = $('#MyTreeList').children('div.k-grid-header').children('div.k-grid-header-wrap');
var tableChild = foo.children('table');
var headChild = tableChild.children('thead');
var bottomRow = headChild.children('tr');
var topRow = $('<tr>').attr('role', 'row');
// bottom cell should draw a border on the left
bottomRow.children('th').eq(0).addClass('k-first');
// add blank cell
var myNewCell = $('<th>').addClass('k-header').attr('colspan', '1')
var headerString = '';
var headerText = $('<span>').addClass('k-link').text(headerString);
myNewCell.append(headerText);
topRow.append(myNewCell);
// ... add remaining cells, like above
headChild.prepend(topRow);
}
</script>
That's all there is to it!

jqGrid custom recordtext and using loadComplete to get records count

I am trying to change the recordtext of a display grid to a custom format. I am using a treeview as the selector that refreshes the display grid. I need to find the total records for the grid and I am able to get this value using the getGridParam records method when I click on the treeview node and load the display grid.
However, after I get this value and try to create the custom recordtext, the record count is the previous value, not the current records count. I know that the gridComplete happens before the loadComplete, but even placing the get in the gridComplete and the set int he loadComplete, it still doesn't work, even with a reloadGrid trigger. If I click on the treeview node twice, I get the correct value.
I am thinking it is a timing issue as to when the new value is ready to set the recordtext. Any help would be great, thanks in advance.
I recommend you to try updatepager method, which updates the information on the pager. Alternatively you can do for example the following:
loadComplete: function () {
var p = $(this).jqGrid("getGridParam");
p.records = 123;
p.recordtext = "My View {0} - {1} of <i>{2}<i>";
this.updatepager();
}
to see the viewrecords

jqgrid: How to format master/detail grids?

I have a jqgrid with a subgrid.
I am attempting to apply different colors to master and detail grids. I have two rules: the first one is to alternate odd and pair colors and the other one is to apply specific CSS to the row, based on values of a specific field.
Both master & details grid, contains the following gridComplete functions, where obviously childnodes index varies cause tables contains different fields:
gridComplete: function () {
var _rows = $(".jqgrow");
for (var i = 0; i < _rows.length; i++) {
_rows[i].attributes["class"].value += " " + _rows[i].childNodes[4].textContent;
_rows[i].attributes["class"].value += " " + _rows[i].childNodes[4].innerText;
}
applyZebra("jqTicketgrid");
}
applyZebra function provides to alternate odd/pair colours and has already been tested on another grid which not contains a subgrid.
For the record, I found above solutions in other solved questions of this forum, and both works with "simple" jqgrids (not master/detail).
PROBLEM
The master grid is formatted only when I click to expand the detail rows, while detail subgrid never alternate colours, neither apply format based on cell contents...
Where I am wrong? Pheraps I must intercept another event which is not gridComplete? Otherwise with grid&subgrids it's impossible to use _rows[x] & childNodes[y] attributes?
Please ask for clarifications, if needed, thx.
Thanks in advance!
I suppose the error in your code is that you use $(".jqgrow") instead of $(".jqgrow", this) where this inside of gridComplete will be either DOM element of the <table> of the grid or the subgid (I suppose you use grid as subgrid).
Additionally I would not recommend you to use you current code at all. It's much more effective and simple to to use cellattr. The rawObject parameter allow you access all other cells of the current row. In the answer you will find an example of implementation.

Jquery UI Slider - Input a Value and Slider Move to Location

I was wondering if anyone has found a solution or example to actually populating the input box of a slider and having it slide to the appropriate position onBlur() .. Currently, as we all know, it just updates this value with the position you are at. So in some regards, I am trying to reverse the functionality of this amazing slider.
One link I found: http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/t-177578.html is a bit outdated, but looks like they made an attempt. However, the links to the results do not exist. I am hoping that there may be a solution out there.
I know Filament has re-engineered the slider to handle select (drop down) values, and it works flawlessly.. So the goal would be to do the same, but with an input text box.
Will this do what you want?
$("#slider-text-box").blur(function() {
$("#slider").slider('option', 'value', parseInt($(this).val()));
});
Each option on the slider has a setter as well as a getter, so you can set the value with that, as in the example above. From the documentation:
//getter
var value = $('.selector').slider('option', 'value');
//setter
$('.selector').slider('option', 'value', 37);
UPDATE:
For dual sliders you'll need to use:
$("#amount").blur(function () {
$("#slider-range").slider("values", 0, parseInt($(this).val()));
});
$("#amount2").blur(function () {
$("#slider-range").slider("values", 1, parseInt($(this).val()));
});
You'll need to use Math.min/max to make sure that one value doesn't pass the other, as the setter doesn't seem to prevent this.
You were almost there when you were using the $("#slider-range").slider("values", 0) to get each value. A lot of jQuery has that kind of get/set convention in which the extra parameter is used to set the value.
I've done some work around the jQuery UI slider to make it accept values from a textbox, it may not be exactly what you were after but could help:
http://chowamigo.blogspot.com/2009/10/jquery-ui-slider-that-uses-text-box-for.html
$slider = $("#slider");
$("#amountMin").blur(function () {
$slider.slider("values", 0,Math.min($slider.slider("values", 1),parseInt($(this).val()) ) );
$(this).val(Math.min($slider.slider("values", 1),parseInt($(this).val())));
});
$("#amountMax").blur(function () {
$slider.slider("values",1,Math.max($slider.slider("values", 0),parseInt($(this).val()) ) );
$(this).val(Math.max($slider.slider("values", 0),parseInt($(this).val())));
});
I just used martin's code and updated the id to #slider also added the math.max as he suggested so the sliders won't overlap.
