JqGrid - Simple Searching With Additional Field(s)



i am using jqgrid and have simple searching enabled. i am wondering if there is a way to add an additional item in the select list of fields that does not exist as a column in the grid. i would call it something like 'Any Field' so i could search on any of the fields and then handle that outcome server side.





thanks grant.

  1. The suggestion of Bethrezen with the usage of one hidden column is one way which you can use. You should only don't forget to use searchhidden: true searchoptions.

    Another way which I can suggest you can see on the demo:



    In the demo I add the

    var defaultFilters = {
    "groupOp": "AND",
    "rules": [
    { "field": "All", "op": "cn", "data": ""}
    ]
    };
    ...
    $('#list').jqGrid('navGrid', '#pager', {add: false, edit: false, del: false},
    {}, {}, {},
    {
    multipleSearch: true,
    overlay: 0,
    onInitializeSearch: function ($form) {
    $form.jqFilter('addFilter', defaultFilters);
    },
    afterRedraw: function (p) {
    if (p.columns.length === $("#list")[0].p.colModel.length) {
    p.columns.push({
    name: 'All',
    label: 'Any Field',
    searchoptions: {},
    searchrules: {},
    searchtype: 'string',
    inputtype: 'text'
    });
    }
    //$(this).find('.delete-rule:first').hide();
    }
    });


    In the demo I extended the p.columns parameter of jqFilter method with and additional "pseudo column" 'Any Field'. It's just the idea which you can I hope adopt to your exact requirements.

  2. Try adding new hidden column and setting hidedlgand hidden to true, viewable to false.

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
