jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Searching a bit on the forum found /blog/?page_id=393/help/jqgrid-how-do-i-sum-the-values-in-columns-and-use-result/.  Though not related, thought found something interesting.  Basically an opportunity to run some code after loading completes.

Can this be used to copy rows/info from summary footer onto the group header row and then discard/hide summary footer rows?

I could solve this with a slight hack...

In Loadcomplete handler, we need to extract contents of the summary footer and add them to the group header row.

$("#" + treeId + " tr.jqfoot").each(function () {

var summaryrow = $(this);

var level = summaryrow.attr('jqfootlevel');

var groupSelector = 'tr.jqgroup.' + treeId + 'ghead_' + level + ':first';

// get matching previous group row for level.  prev doesn't work so using prevAll. //http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5778092/jquery-selector-for-previous-instance-of-a-class
var grouprow = summaryrow.prevAll(groupSelector); 

// grouprow by default stretches to entire table.

// reduce that to occupy till first column. as we will add other columns from footer.

grouprow.children('td').attr('colSpan', 1); 

 // get other columns

var childrenSkipFirst = summaryrow.children(':nth-child(n+' + (2) + ')'); // 1 based index          

summaryrow.children().remove(); // remove the non-result columns left over, this will hide the summary row.
grouprow.append(childrenSkipFirst);

}
