Answer 1

Thanks all for your effort, with help of a friend at work I managed to get this working with some jquery.

Here is what I did...

$("#" + rowId).find('td').eq('3').html('newText')

here 3 is used because I want to change my 3rd column.

Hope this is useful for someone in future :)

You can use getRowData and setRowData methods to achieve this (they are working directly with data array):

var rowData = $('#my-jqgrid-table').jqGrid('getRowData', rowId);
rowData.Currency = '12321';
$('#my-jqgrid-table').jqGrid('setRowData', rowId, rowData);

Answer 3

Here is the correct way according to the documentation :-

$("#my-jqgrid-table").jqGrid("setCell", rowid, "Currency", "New value");

Check that all variables are correct as what you did seems correct. loadOnce has no impact, you must have a mistake elsewhere.

• Are you sure the row name is Currency (not the index)
• Check the variable rowId, should it be rowid or rowID
