Flexigrid - Lightweight but rich data grid

[quote author="hotmeteor" date="1207011673"]Yep, very awesome. I've emailed you already with a question but haven't heard back. I have 2 now...


1. Is it possible to force selecting only one record at a time?
2. Is it possible to pass more POST variables to the function, so that I could use this for search results?

Maybe you're working on this stuff, not sure. But it's fantastic so far anyway!

Thanks.[/quote]

1. Right now. Nope.
2. Yes. There is an onSubmit API where you can add a Javascript that you can use to add a data using jQuery's .serializeArray method. you can even return false to the API if you want to verify your user's entered data, and prevent flexigrid from submitting to the server.

Please forgive me, I haven't actually downloaded it and used it. But, is it possible to add pagination to an HTML table?

Yes it has an API, if you want an external paging mechanism.

[quote author="nmweb" date="1206817960"]I ran into it some time ago and I like it. Only thing missing was that it accepts xml datasources and not json which I usually use. Anyway, really good work, well done [/quote]

JSON support now available. Check out the site :-)

Forgive my ignorance but where do you put $('.flexme').flexigrid(); ?

Does it have to be a in php page?

It is the function of the Flexigrid jQuery plugin. jQuery is a Javascript library, so you should check out jquery.com for more information if you're stumped what to do.

It's a javascript plugin, so it's a front-end grid, what ever you use in the backend platform is up to you. :-)

So just generate an html and apply the script.

Paulo, bloody awesome. Really. Not sure if you're looking for requests, as I'm sure your hands are full, but here are a couple anyway...

1. Multi-column sort (see jQuery Tablesorter plugin for what I mean).
2. Inline-editing.

Again, beautiful work.

Hi Paulo!

First I would like to say that your flexigrid is great!
I found a small bug (or maybe something that hasn't been implemented yet):

When you click a column which is NOT sortable, the Ajax request is still processed.

I added this to the
changeSort function:

changeSort: function(th) { //change sortorder
var col_id = ($(th).attr('axis').substr(3));
if(p.colModel[col_id]['sortable']!=true){
return false;

}
......

Hope this will be handy for other users

Greetings

Sander

Thanks for the heads up :-)

Actually what happened was i rewrote the colModel, and forgot to remove the setting in Example 3, you don't have to declare if it's sortable, just don't assign a name in the configuration.

You don't need it. Flexigrid determines which column a data belongs by assigning an identifier to the column.
