Grid source question passing prams

[DavidSimmonsParticipant]

I need to pass some parameters to the url as a part of the source call. Looking at your examples shown below
can I pass using something like this? I would appreciate your help…
************
processdata: function (data) {
data.ID = ’19’;
}
************

var source =
{
datatype: “jsonp”,
datafields: [
{ name: ‘countryName’ },
{ name: ‘name’ },
{ name: ‘population’, type: ‘float’ },
{ name: ‘continentCode’ }
],
url: “http://ws.geonames.org/searchJSON”,
processdata: function (data) {
data.featureClass = “P”;;
data.style = “full”;
data.maxRows = 50;
}
};

Hi David,

This help topic illustrates how to pass additional parameters: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-documentation/documentation/jqxgrid/jquery-grid-extra-http-variables.htm

Ok that works great…
data: {
ID: “12”
}

But now I have to do a $(jqxgrid).jqxGrid(‘updatebounddata’); after an update and grid returns with no data found.
If I refresh the page the data is correct with updates as well.

Does the updatebounddata not use the data object. If not how can pass the data object within the updatebounddata?

I Have tried the following but does not work.

$(jqxgrid).jqxGrid(‘updatebounddata’, data);

and

$(jqxgrid).jqxGrid(‘updatebounddata’ source.data);

Hi David,

data: {
ID: “12″
}

is a definition of one time object initialization and “updatebounddata” will send that data each time you call the method. The “formatData” callback is more appropriate in scenarios where you have to dynamically make updates and send updated parameters.
