I've been searching through the docs, but I can't find how to populate the JQGrid based on the option chosen in a select box. In other words, run the program when the select box is changed and pass the selected option in the program call. I could have overlooked it, though. Any ideas?

This sounds similar to a design I am working with. Essentially a user is selecting a project and a date. Using this a sequence of grids is loaded to display information such as expenses, vehicles etc.

The trick I did:

1. You have to chang the edit and url parameters:

ie:

pdate = document.getElementById("projectdate").value;
PID = document.getElementById("projectid").value

        eurl = "./actions/ProjectHoursUpdate.php?pdate="+pdate+"&pid="+PID;
        surl = "./actions/ProjectHourInfo.php?pdate="+pdate+"&pid="+PID;

        jQuery('#hours').setGridParam({editurl:eurl});
        jQuery('#hours').setGridParam({url:surl});

I created a function that was is called in the onChange event of my date box.

2. Create a grid reload function

ie.

jQuery('#hours').trigger("reloadGrid");

Call this function immediately after you have set your edit/url parameters.

If you have any questions just send me a message. Hope that helps!

That worked great! Thanks Nathan. I really should have thought of that, but it's a good thing you did.
