Have columntype:button render a button element

[risingtigerParticipant]

I’m wanting to have each row render out buttons on the right most column, so on that column I’m setting type to button. It renders a button, but the problem is is that it renders out an <input type=”button”> instead of a <button> element. The reason why that is unfortunate is that I can’t have anything but text as the value of an input element. What I want is to have an icon with no words for the button, which would be easy if its an actual <button>.

Is there any way to make that happen?

Thanks in advance

Hi risingtiger,

If you need a button with Image, you can take a look at: http://www.jqwidgets.com/jquery-widgets-demo/demos/jqxgrid/imagecolumn.htm?arctic. It shows how to display Image in a Grid cell. Then you can handle, the cellclick event of jqxGrid and listen when the user clicks on a cell. If it’s image, then you will do something in the event handler.

About changing the Button column’s built in rendering – this is not possible.

Hope this helps.
