I ve got a rather indirect way  Your data should have an unique id   First  setting a formatter    extend true    fn fmatter              numdata  function cellvalue  options  rowdata       return   lt span class  numData  data-num    rowdata num    gt   rowdata num   lt  span gt            Use this formatter in ColModel  To retrieve ID  e g  selected row   var grid       grid         rowId   grid getGridPara  selrow        num   grid find     rowId   span numData   attr  data-num       or you can directly use  data   for latest jquery 1 4 4

Basically  you have to save the row before you access the cell contents   If you do  then you get the value for the cell instead of the markup that comes when the cell is in edit mode   jQuery each selectedRows  function index  foodId                   save the row on the grid in  client array   I E  without a server post                 favoritesTable   saveRow foodId  false   clientArray                     longhand  get grid row based on the id             var gridRow       favoritesTable   getRowData foodId                   reference the value from the editable cell             foodData    foodId         gridRow  ServingsConsumed

I think that Aidan s answer is by far the best       yourgrid   jqGrid  editCell   0  0  false     This commits any current edits  giving you access to the real value   I prefer it because         You don t have to hard-code any cell references  in       It is particularly well suited to using getRowData   to get the entire grid  as it doesn t care which cell you ve just been editing    You re not trying to parse some markup generated by jqGrid which may change in future    If the user is saving  then ending the edit session is likely the behaviour they would want anyway

Hi  I met this problem too  Finally I solved this problem by jQuery  But the answer is related to the grid itself  not a common one  Hope it helps   My solution like this   var userIDContent       grid   getCell id  userID        Use getCell to get the content   alert  userID    userID       you can see the content here     Use jQuery to create this element and then get the required value  var userID     userIDContent  val        var userID     userIDContent  attr  attrName

In my case the contents of my cell is HTML as result of a formatter  I want the value inside anchor tag  By fetching the cell contents and then creating an element out of the html via jQuery I am able to then access the raw value by calling  text   on my newly created element   var cellContents   grid getCell rowid   ColNameHere    console log   cellContents       in my case logs  lt h3 gt  lt a href     gt The Value I m After lt  a gt  lt  h3 gt   var cellRawValue     cellContents  text    console log cellRawValue     outputs  The Value I m After     my answer is based on  LLQ answer  but since in my case my cellContents isn t an input I needed to use  text   instead of  val   to access the raw value so I thought I d post this in case anyone else is looking for a way to access the raw value of a formatted jqGrid cell

try subscribing to afterEditCell event it will receive  rowid  cellname  value  iRow  iCol  where value is your a new value of your cell

User · Answer

As you stated  according to the jqGrid documentation for getCell and getRowData      Do not use this method when you editing the row or cell  This will return the cell content and not the actual value of the input element   Since neither of these methods will return your data directly  you would have to use them to return the cell content itself and then parse it  perhaps using jQuery  It would be nice if a future version of jqGrid could provide a means to do some of this parsing itself  and or provide an API to make it more straightforward  But on the other hand is this really a use case that comes up that often   Alternatively  if you can explain your original problem in more detail there may be other options

After many hours grief I found this to be the simplest solution  Call this before fetching the row data       yourgrid   jqGrid  editCell   0  0  false     It will save any current edit and will not throw if there are no rows in the grid

I think a better solution than using getCell which as you know returns some html when in edit mode is to use jquery to access the fields directly   The problem with trying to parse like you are doing is that it will only work for input fields  not things like select   and it won t work if you have done some customizations to the input fields   The following will work with inputs and select elements and is only one line of code    ondblClickRow  function rowid        var val           rowid     MyCol   val

In order to get the cell value when in-line editing you need to capture this event or another similar event  check documentation    beforeSaveCell  function  rowid  celname  value  iRow  iCol        In the value parameter you have the  value  of the cell that was currently edited   To get the the rest of the values in the row use getRowData    I lost a lot of time with this  hope this helps

My workaround is to attach an object containing orignal values to each tr element in the grid  I ve used afterAddRecord callback to get my hands on the values before jqGrid throws them away and jQuery s  data  method to store them in the work   Example   afterInsertRow  function  rowid  rowdata  rowelem       var tr         rowid       tr  data  jqgrid record data   rowelem           rowelem    is the array of cell values from our JSON data feed or  jsonReader   http   www trirand com jqgridwiki doku php id wiki retrieving data jsonreader as function   Then at any point I can fetch those attributes using     tr  data    jqgrid record data        More at  http   wojciech oxos pl post 9423083837 fetching-original-record-values-in-jqgrid
