When creating a table and setting one of the columns as:

edittype:"select", editoptions:{multiple: true, dataUrl: "somelocation"}

The first <option> tag for the multiselect drop down that is created is not selecting when set to select by default.

Viewing the code returned by the AJAX call, the "selected" attribute is present. When the code is copied to an HTML page by itself, it is selected properly. An example of this returned HTML from the AJAX call is this:

<select id="devices" multiple><option selected value="26">data</option><option selected value="23">network</option><option selected value="32">template</option></select>

In the jqGrid, the above when returned does not have the first option showing as selected, but the other two are. When adding a blank <option> tag before the first one, it then selects the blank one AND the first one.

Please let me know if any more information is needed.

Thanks.

Hello,

As far as I remember the selected values are based on grid data and not on selected data that comes from the dataUrl.

It seems that the cell data (the field with multiselect) in the grid is not consistent with the data from the dataUrl.

Please check if the items in the grid cell are the same as in the dataUrl.

I was able to figure out what was causing this to happen. There is a section of the main source JS file that has this:

// fix IE8/IE7 problem with selecting of the first item on multiple=true
if (i === 0 && elem.multiple) { this.selected = false; }

It was causing the first element to not be selected when it needed to be. This issue can be closed.
