Hi slsu90,
You will have to use the ‘endcelledit’ method and pass the cell’s row, column datafield and a parameter that determines whether the changes will be saved or not.
$("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('endcelledit', 0, "firstname", false);
To get the edit cell’s row and column, use can use the pair of events – ‘cellbeginedit’ and ‘cellendedit’
$("#jqxgrid").bind('cellbeginedit', function (event) { var column = args.datafield; var row = args.rowindex; var value = args.value;});
You can use the row and column when you call the ‘endcelledit’ method.
