# free fork of jqGrid
======

jqGrid is a popular jQuery Plugin for displaying and editing data in tabular form. It has some other more sophisticated features, like subgrids, TreeGrids, grouping and so on.

jqGrid was developed mostly by [Tony Tomov](https://github.com/tonytomov) in the past and it was available under MIT/GPL-licences till the version 4.7.0 published Dec 8, 2014 (see [here](https://github.com/tonytomov/jqGrid/tree/v4.7.0)). Short time after that the license agreement was changed (see <a href="https://github.com/tonytomov/jqGrid/commit/1b2cb55c93ee8b279f15a3faf5a2f82a98da3b4c">here</a>) and new 4.7.1 version was <a href="https://github.com/tonytomov/jqGrid/tree/v4.7.1">published</a>.

The code from the GitHib repository is the fork of jqGrid 4.7.0 - the latest version available under MIT/GPL-licences. It will be provided under MIT/GPL-licences.

### The following bug fixes and small new features are implemented in the version 4.9.1.

* Bug fix in the usage of `editoptions.custom_value`.
* `buildSelect` callback includes now `cm` and `iCol` parameters.
* Bug fix in case of usage `searchoptions.dataUrl` in multiple columns and slow Ajax processing.
* Fix z-index of operation menu of `filterToobar` in case of usage in dialogs.
* Improving parsing of string returned by `cellattr`. One can for example set now any tooltips and the texts (including the words "style" or "title") will be not changed.
* Fix problem with missing common icon class for minus in TreeGrid in case of usage custom plus icon.
* Fix TreeGrid fixes for `treeGridModel: "nested"`.
* New option `sortIconsBeforeText: true` is implemented which allows to place sorting icons before texts in column headers.

* Bug fix in resizing of columns and for frozen column in case of usage together with the option `direction:"rtl"`.

* Bug fix in case if one use string as the value of width parameter.
* Add new parameter of `getRowData` which allows to specify object with up two boolean properties: `skipHidden` and `includeId`.
* Fix the problem with recreating grouping headers in `hideCol`. The problem exist in combination with jqPivot which could creates multilevel column headers.
