Code looks fine, try increasing the timeout duration from 100 to 250.
setTimeout( function(){ jQuery("#list1").jqGrid('setSelection', ids[0], true); },250);

Hi Abu,
In order to get something, I have to set the following to 1200 minimum.
But only the Grid02 gets updated, not Grid 03 … even if I increase to value over 1200 …

Any idea ?

Thanks

Please check for JS error in debug console.
If your grid is online, you can email me details to check live.

Hi Abu,
I hope you are well. I tried to contact you by email / message but I don't know if you got it.

Following your last message, I did check the error console … Nothing in there.

In the console, I get the 4 above lines.
1- this is the main grid which gets loaded.

2- this is the second grid … which gets loaded but reports no data.

3- this is the third grid … same as 2-

4- this is again for the second grid … but data are then reported …

This is strange … Why the second grid gets loaded twice in order to get data … and why grid 3 gets loaded ounces reports nothing ?

Thanks

Hi,
Ok, I managed to make the 2 sub grids to retrieve the records by change the timeout value from 1200 to 2200. It won't work under 2200.

Why this ?

Regards

I am unable to understand the issue, and may need remote desktop or access to grid.
