I would like to see some simple keyboard navigation options made available when browsing through records in the grid.  Here's what I propose:

Up-Down arrows: change the selected row...if no row is selected, first down arrow press selects the first row.

Left-right arrows: changes the page if paging is enabled.

Shift-Left/shift-right arrows: first page/last page.

if more than one grid is on a page, then either have a way to enable/disable this feature (per grid), detect which grid has focus, or use modifiers (such as ctrl or alt keys)

Also, I have used the jquery plugin HotKeys to bring up the search dialog, but i have to refine the search options in the function. I'd like to see methods exposed that would have the same effect as clicking the search, edit, add, etc. buttons.  that way, i could assign HotKeys to run those functions without re-initializing them each time they are run.

Thanks,

Sean Ford

+1 on this.

I'd like to be able to use keyboard nav (up/down etc) even when I'm not using inline editing. Is it possible to provide keypress/keydown hooks a la Jquery -- or to have the underlying Jquery events bubble up?

Love JQgrid, btw. 😉

(Btw, I had a brief look at dataEvents in searchoptions, but couldnt get it to work straight away. Is this supposed to cover this use case?)

Tony- I just found your post about doing part of this with cellEdit: true and all columns non-editable. This works for moving up & down the table at least -- thanks.

Expanded keyboard events would be welcome of course, ie being able to explicitly bind the Enter key etc.

Cheers,

-Peter
