Timing issue while editing..

[eCandidusMember]

All:

I have run into an interesting situation, where the entry on one cell calls for the update of the celll next to it via ‘cellendedit’ with an ajax call and then ‘setcellvalue’ upon success. Unfortunately, the ajax call will never be fast enough to update the data set BEFORE the editor is shown for the next cell, so the value in the editor will always be the cell value before the ajax call.

A simple work around would be to inject the value returned by the ajax call into the editor area, but I cannot find any calls that will return the active editor and the row/column that it is applying to. Any ideas?

Thanks

Follow up:

I added this code after line 6197 of the jqxgrid.js and it works. It is a kludge as it was written in the debugger, so I rather not keep it (also, I am trying to keep the jqx code in the original):

}

// ECANDIDUS 2013-05-23
if (this.editcell && this.editcell.column == datafield && this.editcell.editor && this.editcell.editor[0]) {
this.editcell.editor[0].value = value;
}
//

if (this.source && this.source._knockoutdatasource && !this._updateFromAdapter && this.autokoupdates) {
if (this.source._source._localdata) {

Hope it helps….

Point taken and will not be repeated. Any idea on how top solve the issue?

No problem 🙂

One possible and simple solution would be to set “async: false” in your Ajax call.

Peter:

The issue is that the cellendedit event runs AFTER the editor is up and running on the next cell, so asynch:false does not make any difference. Is there any way I can detect which editor is open?
