jqgrid not updating data on reload

Question

I have a jqgrid with data loading from an xml stream (handled by django 1.1.1):

jQuery(document).ready(function(){
  jQuery(\"#list\").jqGrid({
    url:\'/do

It seems to me you should replace

postData:{
    site:1,
    date_start:document.getElementById('datepicker_start').value,
    date_end:document.getElementById('datepicker_end').value
},

with

postData:{
    site:1,
    date_start: function() { return document.getElementById('datepicker_start').value; },
    date_end: function() { return document.getElementById('datepicker_end').value;}
},

UPDATED: In your current solution the value of postData are calculated one time as you create jqGrid. In the postData with functions jqGrid forward postData to jQuery.ajax and during every jQuery.ajax (after $("#list").trigger("reloadGrid");) the values from datepicker will be read at the moment of jQuery.ajax call.
