Struts 2 jQuery grid load data from JSON string

Question

I found that we can load the jqGird with JSON string. Please refer to map JSON data to jqGrid

Is it possible to use this feature with sjg:grid tag.

The above code works perfect, it add rows for each grid load. If u want new data every time u can use this:

            var allParameters = $("#gridtable").jqGrid("getGridParam");
                        allParameters.data = myData;
                        $("#gridtable").trigger('reloadGrid');

Instead of:

      $("#gridtable").jqGrid('setGridParam', {
                            data: mydata
                        }).trigger("reloadGrid");

Also if u want to make an ajax call to action and fetch list and parse it to add to myData. Check this:

  $.ajax({
            url: "myAction.action", cache: false, dataType: 'json', data: "employeeId=" +
                    employeeIdList,
            success: function (data) {
                var jsonData = JSON.stringify(data.jsonResponse);
                var parsedData = JSON.parse(jsonData);
                if (parsedData.hasResults) {
                    var myData = parsedData.jsonResults;
                    $(document).ready(function () {
                        var allParameters = $("#gridtable").jqGrid("getGridParam");
                        allParameters.data = myData;
                        $("#gridtable").trigger('reloadGrid');

                    });
                }
            } });
