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 in the past and it was available under MIT/GPL-licences till the version 4.7.0 published Dec 8, 2014 (see here). Short time after that the license agreement was changed (see here) and new 4.7.1 version was published.

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.

Below you can find short description of new features and bug fixes implemented in free jqGrid 4.11.1 (compared with version 4.10.0). The version is developed by Oleg Kiriljuk, alias Oleg on the stackoverflow and OlegK on trirand forum.

It somebody want to test the latest version of free jqGrid, one can load it directly from GitHib using RawGit service:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://rawgit.com/free-jqgrid/jqGrid/master/css/ui.jqgrid.css">
<script src="https://rawgit.com/free-jqgrid/jqGrid/master/js/i18n/grid.locale-de.js"></script>
<script src="https://rawgit.com/free-jqgrid/jqGrid/master/js/jquery.jqgrid.src.js"></script>

All other language files and plugins are avalable from CDN too. See the wiki article for more details about the usage of free jqGrid from CDNs and RawGit.

The package is published on WebJars and it's deployed on Maven Central too.

Remark: the above URLs will be available after publishing the release of the version of 4.11.1

The only difference between the version 4.11.1 and the version 4.11.0 is the fix.

• Fix of the bug with mtype in delGridRow. The line with the code type: o.mtype, was accidentally removed in version 4.11.0.

Main new features and improvements implemented in the version 4.11.1.

• Remove old plugins from free jqGrid (grid.addons.js, grid.postext.js, grid.setcolumns.js, jquery.tablednd.js, jquery.searchfilter.js, searchfilter.css).
• Add @license to the comment of plugins and locale files to hold the information on minimizing.
• Including version number of free jqGrid as the comment in ui.jqgrid.css file.
• Use grunt instead of gradle for building free jqGrid. Minimize css using .map file. Update all .min and .map.
• Add "u1000" date format in addition to existing "u" format. See the answer for more details.
• Add support of editable: "hidden" property in inline editing. It can be used to send the content of non-editable column to the server during row editing.
• Changes of CSS settings of TreeGrid icons. Many changes in the structure of grouping header.
• New hasMultiselectCheckBox callback allows to remove multiselect checkbox from some rows.
• Allow to use HTML5 specific values of type attribute of <input> element created during editing (number, range and so on). New option skipPostTypes: ["image", "file"] allows to minimize side effects of the changes.
• Changing encoding of data during inline and form editing. No HTML encoding will be used by default if autoencode: true option is used. It's important for sending correct (non-encoded) JSON data and still use autoencode: true to display the information in the grid. New autoEncodeOnEdit: true option can be used to simulate the old behavior. The option is important for better compatibility with previous versions of jqGrid.
• url of inline editing, cell editing and form editing (inclusive deleting) can be defined now as function. mtype can be function too for inline and form editing methods.
