Hi,
I'm using jqgrid to display a list of sites and I want to do some server side validation when a site is added or edited. (Form editing rather than inline. Validation needs to be server side for various reasons I won't go into.)
I thought the best way would be to check the data via an ajax request when the beforeSubmit event is triggered. However this only seems to work when I'm editing an existing row in the grid - the function isn't called when I add a new row.
Have I got my beforeSubmit in the wrong place?
Thanks for your help.
$("#sites-grid").jqGrid({
url:'/json/sites',
datatype: "json",
mtype: 'GET',
colNames:['Code', 'Name', 'Area', 'Cluster', 'Date Live', 'Status', 'Lat', 'Lng'],
colModel :[
{name:'code', index:'code', width:80, align:'left', editable:true},
{name:'name', index:'name', width:250, align:'left', editrules:{required:true}, editable:true},
{name:'area', index:'area', width:60, align:'left', editable:true},
{name:'cluster_id', index:'cluster_id', width:80, align:'right', editrules:{required:true, integer:true}, editable:true, edittype:"select", editoptions:{value:"<?php echo $cluster_options; ?>"}},
{name:'estimated_live_date', index:'estimated_live_date', width:120, align:'left', editable:true, editrules:{required:true}, edittype:"select", editoptions:{value:"<?php echo $this->month_options; ?>"}},
{name:'status', index:'status', width:80, align:'left', editable:true, edittype:"select", editoptions:{value:"Live:Live;Plan:Plan;"}},
{name:'lat', index:'lat', width:140, align:'right', editrules:{required:true}, editable:true},

});
$("#sites-grid").jqGrid('navGrid','#pager-sites',{edit:true,add:true,del:true, beforeSubmit : function(postdata, formid) {

return[data.result, data.message];
