Hi,

I've got a problem with my generic filter form… everything works fine by defining the editoptions (for select) as JSON array with “normal” alphanumeric characters. But when I use a “;” in one of my key-value-option-pairs then all will break.

The editoptions array is generated server-side (using PHP) and pushed into the Javascript jqGrid editoptions property. No htmlspecialchars, addslashes oder json_encode helped for the following data string:

SName. “

Hello,

I sugest you in this case to use the another possibility – set this as object – i.e. we can have in editoptions this

editoptions:{value:{1:'one',2:'two'…}}

to represent the selects

Hope this will help

Regards

Tony

Thank you for your hint. I changed my PHP code to generate a JSON object instead of an array… this is what a sample result could look like:

editoptions example

{ value:<br /> { 'Pkey. "

1

{ value:<br /> { 'Pkey. "

A fresh code checkout didn't help for me either. :-/

Hello,

The key value should not be enclosed in ''

RFC 4627 defines that an object property must be encloded in ''… nevertheless I also tried this without the key value apostrophe but it didn't work either.

The problem is, that without any limiting ''-elements it's very difficult to transform every not allowed element into another representation. For the JSON object variant one will have to transform all '{' or '}' elements, ',' and ':' elements and so on. I'm not aware of a PHP transformation function that covers all these cases.

Greetings
