CreateWidget & InitWidget Prevents sorting

[jeffoParticipant]

I have a requirement to implement the text in a column as an link to another page. I have successfully managed this requirement by implementing the createwidget function.

createwidget: function (row, column, value, cellElement) {
                        var $el = $(cellElement);

                        $el.removeClass('jqx-grid-widget').addClass('jqx-grid-cell-left-align').attr('style', '').css('margin-top', '4px').append($('<a />').attr('href', 'http://www.someaddresshere.com').html(value));

                    }

because I do not require init widget, but it is mandatory, I have implemented an empty function:

initwidget: function (row, column, value, cellElement) { }

However now whenever I attempt to sort the grid by clicking on any of the header columns, all other columns will sort, but this column does not get redrawn.

Is there a way around this?

Its OK. I seemed to have sorted it.

I have implemented initwidget,

initwidget: function (row, column, value, cellElement) { 
  var $el = $(cellElement);

  $el.removeClass('jqx-grid-widget').addClass('jqx-grid-cell-left-align').attr('style', '').css('margin-top', '4px').empty().append($('<a />').attr('href', 'http://www.someaddresshere.com').html(value));
}

However, row seems to be inconsistent in implementation between containing row id and row object.
