jqGrid search/filter data api

Question

I've already read all available documentation and I cannot find a solution.

I have a calendar outside of the grid which on click returns a date. All I need to do is filter my jqGrid based on that date. Can someone point me to the correct API method?

Thanks!

Answer 1

You could do the filtering server-side. Attach an event to the calendar such that when the date is changed, the grid will be reloaded by data from the server. When you do the reload, pass the date to the server so that it can do filtering based upon that date.

See reload-a-loaded-jqgrid-with-a-diffent-table-data for some pointers on how to reload the grid.
