full row edit example: updaterow is triggered with ESC

[brasioParticipant]

I don’t understand the functionality of the ESC key during a full row edit: I have noticed that updaterow event is called even if I press the ESC key, while I was expecting to cancel the operation. Is it a bug or is it by design?

Is there any way to cancel the operation of updating a row in full row mode?

Thanks

Hi brasio,

What’s the problem to have the updaterow called? It has 2 options – commit(false) and commit(true) to proceed and cancel the changes. On Esc, commit(false) should be called.

Hi Peter. I don’t understand the functionality of the ESC key: it puts my row in not-editing mode without changing cell values, but unfortunately it still calls the updaterow callback function of the grid in order to send data to database. How should I call commit(false) in order to cancel the changes?

My code is:

updaterow: function (rowid, rowdata, commit) {	
                    $.ajax({
                        dataType: 'json',
			type: 'POST',
                        url: 'myurl.php',
                        data: rowdata,
                        success: function (data, status, xhr) {
                        commit(true);
			$('#jqxgrid').jqxGrid('updatebounddata'); //why updatebounddata if commit preserves cell changes???
                        },
                        error: function (xhr, tst, err) {
			alert(err);
                        commit(false);
                        }
                    });
                }
