Tim,

I tried custom buttons, but it's a little different from what you've suggested. I can now delete and add but still having problem with it. Let me explain the situation in detail…

I'm having a master grid that lists out all book lists. When I click on a book list, it will list out the users who subscribed that book list in another gridvew (detail gridview). I followed the example from the demo page, “Master Detail”, http://www.trirand.com/blog/jqgrid/jqgrid.html.

What I want to do is to be able to add / delete users from the detail gridview. Literally, I can add / delete users of a book list. The problem now is that when I delete a user of a book list and then I click on another book list and try to delete the user, it doesn't delete that user. I don't see any problem with add.

This topic was created in the wrong thread. This is discontinued, and the discussion can be found here http://www.trirand.com/blog/?page_id=393/help/cant-add-edit-delete-records-in-database-1/.

I downloaded the demo files and followed the “navigator” sample but couldn't get add/edit/delete functioning properly. It only updates the gridview but not the DB. After page refresh, the data remains the same as original.

I'm using the javascript version and this is somehow different from the commercial version. Should we write our own insert/update/delete manually? Or, this is being handled by the library itself? Or, is this possibly another issue I am facing?

Kinda confused.
