hello,

I would like to totally change the sort behaviour (in an experimental way).

I know of the onSortCol event; but I also know that it does not allow to “abandon” the sorting in a regular way.

So I would like to provide my own sortData method. Is there a more “release-robust” way then to patch into grid.base.js ?

My dream is “monkey-patching”, after loading jquery and jqgrid having an additional code with

jqGrid.sortData=function (index, idxcol,reload,sor) {

// my own implementation

}

can somebody give me a hint how to do this monkey-patching?

best wishes

Harald
