2 grid columns, each with a separate dropdown

Questions2 grid columns, each with a separate dropdown
Grant Bristow asked 8 years ago

I have a grid with 2 lookup columns. As far as I can tell, they are identically coded (with consideration that they lookup on different tables). There is 1 column in between the two. Here is my php code. The second grid column with a dropdown (PO_status) works. The first column, Status, does not.

$col = array();
$col["name"] = "Status";
$col["editable"] = true;
$col["width"] = "80";
$col["edittype"] = "select"; // render as select
# fetch data from database, with alias k for key, v for value
$req_str = $g->get_dropdown_values("select distinct req_status as k, req_status as v from req_status");
$col["editoptions"] = array(
"value"=>$req_str,
"onchange" => array(
"sql"=>"select * from req_status",
"search_on"=>"req_status",
"callback" => "fill_form" )
);

$col["editoptions"]["dataInit"] = "function(){ setTimeout(function(){ link_select2('{$col["status"]}'); },200); }";

$col["stype"] = "select"; // enable dropdown search
$col["searchoptions"] = array("value" => ":;".$req_str);
$cols[] = $col;

$col = array();
$col["name"] = "PO_number";
$cols[] = $col;

$col = array();
$col["name"] = "PO_status";
$col["editable"] = true;
$col["width"] = "80";
$col["edittype"] = "select"; // render as select
# fetch data from database, with alias k for key, v for value
$po_str = $g->get_dropdown_values("select distinct po_status as k, po_status as v from po_status");
$col["editoptions"] = array(
"value"=>$po_str,
"onchange" => array(
"sql"=>"select * from po_status",
"search_on"=>"po_status",
"callback" => "fill_form" )
);

$col["editoptions"]["dataInit"] = "function(){ setTimeout(function(){ link_select2('{$col["PO_status"]}'); },200); }";

$col["stype"] = "select"; // enable dropdown search
$col["searchoptions"] = array("value" => ":;".$po_str);
$cols[] = $col;

In both cases,
change param of link_select2 to $col["name"]
$col["editoptions"]["dataInit"] = "function(){ setTimeout(function(){ link_select2('{$col["name"]}'); },200); }";

Rest code looks fine. If you can send screenshot of issue, it would help.

Thank you, Abu, for the speedy answer. I changed the link_select2 line to use $col["name"] but I still get the same problem. Here is a screenshot. As you can see, the "PO Status" shows the dropdown, but the Status neither shows nor performs the dropdown.

(I can't see how to attach a screenshot, so I have emailed you at [email protected] with it attached.)

To show select2 while editing:
$col["edittype"] = "select";
$col["editoptions"] = array("value"=>$str);
$col["editoptions"]["dataInit"] = "function(){ setTimeout(function(){ link_select2('{$col["name"]}'); },200); }";

To show select2 in autofilter search:
$col["stype"] = "select";
$col["searchoptions"] = array("value"=>$str);
$col["searchoptions"]["dataInit"] = "function(){ setTimeout(function(){ link_select2('gs_{$col["name"]}'); },200); }";

you need to replace $str with your values / variable.
