Is Jquery $(this) broken by jqgrid gridunload method?
- by chohi
I expect the following code to unload a javascipt jqgrid, then load another grid with different options, including different columns
//onload
(function($)
$.fn.myGridFn = function(options){
$(this).jqGrid('GridUnload');
$(this).jqGrid(options.gridoptions);
//....
$('#select').change(function(){
switch($(this).val())
{
case 'grid1':
$('#grid').myGridFn({gridoptions:{/*grid1 options*/}});
break;
case 'grid2':
$('#grid').myGridFn({gridoptions:{/*grid2 options*/}});
break;
}
});
})(jQuery);
//...
<table id="grid"></table>
What I get is the grid unloading, then I have to change the selection in the select element and back again to load the new grid.
Updated:
If I replace the $(this) in the plugin with the actual element selector $('#grid') - it works just fine, I cant do this in my real app because the plugin is used by several other table elements and grids
