Hi Peter, safari with user agent iOIS5+ is not working, no click events. Of course we also use real devices for testing.

Now something different: We are using jqwidgets for our desktop web application. Smartphones where supported by Titanium build apps. Now we decided to switch to HTML5. We are wondering whether the jqwidgets framework is suitabled for HTML5 cross browser/device smartphone development. Your mobile demo pages are nice but do not show a generic way how to setup a web page for handling different smart devices. As far as I found out, some magic is happening in simulator.js . A tutorial about setting up a mobile website with jqwidgets would be helpfull.

Hi Peter, I found the reason. We are testing our mobile pages with the safari browser, setting the user agent to ‘Safari iOS 4.3.3 – iPhone’. You can reproduce the behaviour with your own demo page for DateTimeInput:

Set the user-agent and click the calendar symbol.

The same happens with firefox setting the user agent.

Hi Peter,

could you please give me a complete example of exportdata with all parameters ? Are the charset strings the same as the html charset strings, e.g. ‘ISO-8859-1’ ?

This is how we fill the grid:

var ngridsource = {
localdata: alarms,
datatype: ‘array’,
datafields:
[
{ name: ‘AlarmID’, type: ‘number’ },
{ name: ‘DateOn’, type: ‘date’ },
{ name: ‘DateOff’, type: ‘date’ },
{ name: ‘DateAck’, type: ‘date’ },
{ name: ‘AlarmText’, type: ‘string’ },
{ name: ‘AlarmGroupDescription’, type: ‘string’ },
{ name: ‘AlarmTypeDescription’, type: ‘string’ }
]
};
var dataAdapter = new $.jqx.dataAdapter(ngridsource);
$(‘#gridAlarms’).jqxGrid({ source: dataAdapter });

Hi Peter, thank you very much for your fast response. Thats what we looked for.

Hello Dimitar,

thank you very much for fixing the clipping bug in 2.8.1.

Hi Peter,

thank you very much for fixing the performance problem in 2.8.1.

[carloParticipant]

Hi Dimitar,

look here: http://85.214.238.149/timechart2.html
This does not happen with jqw 2.7 .

[carloParticipant]

Hello Dimitar,

its a good idea to show basic syntax issues, but it does break running code by updating from 2.7 to 2.8 . So we have to do a complete regression test when we are updating jqwidgets. You should be very carefull introducing changes which will break existing running code at your customers. And if you do so, you should make it very clear in your documentation.

We use the following code to resize the div container:

$(“#chart”).height(h);
$(“#chart”).width(w);
$(“#chart”).jqxChart(“refresh”);

But the chart is is not being drawn complete. Its clipped on the right side. See an example here:

Hi Peter,

our listbox source is an array of objects like { id: 1, name ‘Otto}. When we call

var item = $(“#listBoxA”).jqxListBox( “getSelectedItem” );

then item has the property originalItem, which is the selected array object.

Best Regards,

Hi Peter,

what about setting the jqWidgets decimalSeparator default value once for all widgets on one page ?
Also setting the theme once would be nice.

Hi Peter,

I am still waiting for the ‘exportdata always calling jqwidgets’ bugfix. My bugreport was on September 27, thats nearly 2 month ago.

Hi Peter,

is it possible to get a patch for that bug before your next official release ? I think its only one file involved.

Best Regards,

[carloParticipant]

Hi Peter,

is there any news about exportdata always calling jqwidgets ? Our customers are waiting for the export feature.

Hi Peter,

I downloaded v2.5 source again and the php files are there.

Best Regards,
Karlheinz

[carloParticipant]

Hi Peter,

missed the API change. But exportdata is still calling jqwidgets. Here is my code:

var url = "http://localhost/save-file.php";
alert("Export Start url:" + url);				
$("#jqxgrid").jqxGrid('exportdata', 'xls', 'test', true, null, url);	

P.S.:
Where are the php files in the v2.5 source code ?

Best Regards,
Karlheinz
