initTabContent – Passing Other Data

[JonHParticipant]

Sorry if this is a double post, when I hit submit on the first attempt, it just seemed to disappear.

I have a list of items displayed in a grid. No problem there.

I’ve using “rowdetails” to display two sets of data (notes & audit) that relate to the items from the list.

Using jqxTabs I’ve setup the rowdetails to show two tabs, one for Notes and one for Audit. (So far so good)

I then use initTabContent and initWidgets (following the example) to display either the NoteGrid or AuditGrid. (Still good)

However, the way I’ve setup my data sources I need to pass an ID to it so the proper data loads. This is where I’m having problems.

The data I need is in the initrowdetails function (record.adm_num) but the initTabContent only allows the passing of the Tab number. Is there a way to also pass, or otherwise access) the record.adm_num data in the initTabContent function?

Or do I need to readdress my data source?

Thanks for your help.

I had a flash of inspiration and found a way to make it work. Well, at least it works in my limited testing so far. 🙂

I moved my datasource definitions out of the initnotedetails and initauditdetails functions so they are available outside of them. Then I added notesource.url = “load_notes.php?=”+record.adm_num, and a similar line for the auditsource, to the initrowdetails function.

If there’s a better way, I’m open to learn.

Thanks.
