I have this jqGrid:
$("#report").jqGrid( {
url: '/py/db?coll=report',
datatype: 'json',
height: 250,
colNames: ['ACN', 'Status', 'Amount'],
colModel: [ {name:'acn', sortable:true},
{name:'meta.status', sortable:true},
{name:amount} ],
caption: 'Show Report',
rownumbers: true,
gridview: true,
rowNum: 10,
rowList: [10,20,30],
pager: '#report_pager',
viewrecords: true,
sortname: 'acn',
sortorder: "desc",
altRows: true,
loadonce: true,
mtype: "GET",
rowTotal: 1000,
jsonReader: {
root: "rows",
page: "page",
total: "total",
records: "records",
repeatitems: false,
id: "acn"
}
});
Notice that the column 'meta.status' is in JSON dot notation and accordingly the data sent from the server is like this:
{"page": "1", "total": "1", "records": "5", "rows": [
{"acn":1,"meta": {"status":"Confirmed"}, "amount": 50},
{"acn":2,"meta": {"status":"Started"}, "amount": 51},
{"acn":3,"meta": {"status":"Stopped"}, "amount": 52},
{"acn":4,"meta": {"status":"Working"}, "amount": 53},
{"acn":5,"meta": {"status":"Started"}, "amount": 54} ] }
The problems are of two fold:
Sorting does not work on columns with dot notation, here "meta.status". It does not even show the sortable icons on the column header, and nothing happens even if the header is clicked. Sorting does not work, whether loadonce is true or false.
If I try Searching (after setting loadonce to true) for the column meta.status (other columns without dot notation is okay), then it throws up a javascript error like this.
Any help?
Thanks
