Hi,

I am trying to get the index of the cell in jqGrid that has been clicked on. I have tried all variations on using index() and get() and parent(), I can't seem to work out how to return the index of the click cell.

I have the following which picks up the doubleclick:

#list is the id of the grid body table.

$("#list").dblclick(function(e){

// return the index of the target cell in the table
var index = $(e.target).index(this);
alert(index); // this just returns -1
});

Any ideas how I can get the index of the clicked cell within the grid.

Cheers,

Dave

Hello Dave

Use onCellSelect event - see the docs. Also I expect some problems in IE in case you have a hidden coulnm.

Thanks Tony, but on this occasion I need to use an external dblclick handler because I am already using onSelectRow and onDblClickRow to enter inline editing mode.

When the user double clicks on certain cells a thickbox opens containing related info to the content of the clicked cell. I need to know the index so I can grab the corresponding header to work out which thickbox content to load.

Cheers,

Dave

Problem solved - here's the code that works:

$("table.scroll").dblclick(function(e){
   var index = e.target.cellIndex;
   var colname = $("table.scroll > thead > tr > th").get(index);
   var coltext = $(colname).children("div").text();
   alert(coltext);
}

Cheers,

Dave
