hi all,

How do i properly close the editform from within the "afterSubmit" event handler function?

After the user submits the edit form, I leave the edit form open to allow the user to use the prev and next buttons to edit other records. This is normally done by leaving the "closeAfterEdit" property false in the grid nav section.

However, in the "afterSubmit" event handler function, i want to properly close the edit form only if a condition is true.

thanks.

Hello,

You can triger click to the cancel button.

If I remember right the cancel button has a id = cData

This is not good, since of multigrids with multi forms it will make problems with equal ids.

This should be changed in the future.

In order to overcome this – if the grid has id=GRID, then

$("#cData", "#TblGrid_GRID_2″).click();

Another way is to trgger click to the close buton. See which calss it has to perform this.

Tony,

I wanted to make sure i was closing the form "properly – as in – not messing up other grids and forms".

However, i think you ment to write:

$("#TblGrid_GRID_2 #cData″).click();

which, according to the jQuery docs, the Descendant Selector (“ancestor descendant”), Selects all elements that are descendants of a given ancestor. Your method is the Multiple Selector (“selector1, selector2, selectorN”), which would trigger the click on all "#cData" ids as well as the "#TblGrid_GRID_2″ id.

In any case, I got it, and the method works and avoids any other issues.

As always, thanks!
