How to get a jqGrid cell value when editing

Question

How to get a jqGrid cell value when in-line editing (getcell and getRowData returns the cell content and not the actuall value of the input element).

Answer 1

Hi， I met this problem too. Finally I solved this problem by jQuery. But the answer is related to the grid itself, not a common one. Hope it helps.

My solution like this:

var userIDContent = $("#grid").getCell(id,"userID");  // Use getCell to get the content
//alert("userID:" +userID);  // you can see the content here.

//Use jQuery to create this element and then get the required value.
var userID = $(userIDContent).val();  // var userID = $(userIDContent).attr('attrName');
