Thanks for putting up the test page. I am seeing the same two problems on:

http://www.trirand.com/jqgrid35/cellbug.html

Let me try to explain the repros better…

#1) To see the double post problem… I forgot to mention that the easiest way to see the issue is to use FireBug's NET tab. Open up the above URL and enable FireBug. Edit a cell value and press and FireBug displays a single request. Edit a cell value and press and FireBug displays two additional identical requests. (This isn't a FireBug oddity because you can see the double-post issue if you put a breakpoint in your server-side code, which is where I first noticed it.)

#2) To see the problem… Enter “5” in Line 1 Amount and press . (Click OK on the error message due to the bogus cellurl. The problem still happens if it's a real URL that doesn't display an error.) You are in edit mode on Line 1 Tax. Click on Line 2 Tax. Line 1 Tax remains in edit mode. (Line 2 Tax is also in edit mode.) Click on Line 1 Tax again and you will see the value in the text box changes to .

I've created a short screencast demonstrating the repro:

HTH, James

Thanks for the quick reply, Tony. The UTF-8 flag fixed the errors. YUI Compressor should be sufficient to create minified builds for the project. No need to worry about the PHP version unless someone else needs it. For reference, here is the PowerShell command line that I'm using to compress and combine all of the JS files into a single jquery.jqGrid.min.js file:

ls .\jqGrid\js\*.js | foreach { java -jar .\yuicompressor-2.4.2.jar $_.FullName –charset utf-8 >> min\jquery.jqGrid.min.js }

Thanks again.

Thanks for the reply, Tony. I am familiar with ThemeRoller, but I'm not using it in my application. I'm using a single local jQuery UI Theme located in /Content/redmond. jQuery, jQuery UI, and jqgrid are all located in /Scripts. I have tried jqGrid with both the loose files and minified. Everything works as expected in Firefox and Chrome, but IE8 spins with:

Downloading picture http://localhost:9999/Content/redmond/images/ui-bg_glass_75_d0e5f5_1x400.png

The exact image changes, but it always spins/waits forever in IE. This happens both locally and on the QA server.

Any other thoughts on what could be causing this behaviour?

Thanks, James
