Multiple value in one cell from XML

[TouxeParticipant]

Hello,

I’m a new user and i started to implement a grid.
For each line in my grid, the last column may be multivalued (0, 1 or more value).

I’m loading datas from an XML :

<Students>
  <Student>
    <Name>Student 1 Name</Name>
    <Id>1</Id>
    <Courses>
      <Course>
        <Label>Mathematics</Label>
        <Id>1</Id>
      </Course>
      <Course>
        <Label>History</Label>
        <Id>2</Id>
      </Course>
    </Courses>
  </Student>
  <Student>
    <Name>Student 2 Name</Name>
    <Id>5</Id>
    ...
   </Student>
<Students>

How can i show in the last column of my grid all course label ? (Sorted list for example).

I tried to implement the example “foreign key” provided in the documentation but without success.

Thank you for your help

Hi Touxe,

A possible approach would be to show the column with the multuple values as a custom editor, a jqxDropDownList. That would require to load the Courses from your XML as a second data source to the jqxDropDownList. As a result in the cell of that column you will see only one value, for example “Mathematics” and when you click on it to change it, the rest of the available options will appear in a dropDownList. If that works for you then it’s possible to accomplish the goal using that approach.

Best Regards,
