Hi craig, awesome work on creating this solution. I just seem to be missing something. According to jqgrid the rows data structure is as follows:
{id=numbervalue, {cell=[array of values]}}

and yours is just the key-value pairs?

I had my own manual setup to pass the json data to the grid but wanted to implement yours due to the less code required. But, now the grid doesn’t understand the data… I tried using the version of jqgrid in your sample sollution, but still nothing…

Thanks Craig for a nice article. However, when I download and run the code, I get a javascript error "Microsoft JScript runtime error: ‘$.jgrid’ is null or not an object" in Site.Master.js. I am new to jQuery grid so I am not sure what could be wrong. I tried playing with paths in the jQuery.jqGrid.js file but no luck. I simply downloaded the code, extracted it, opened VS2008 that automatically created the virtual directory and hit F5. I see the error right away. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks a lot !!

Mike, the query in my project works fine as it is. If you need help with LINQ to SQL, I’d suggest posting the details of your problem on http://www.stackoverflow.com

If you think the errors are in my code, you’d need to tell me what they are for me to be of any help. But do read the "LINQ Errors" entry in this series first, as it may already answer your questions.

Craig - Thanks for the demo. I’m trying to get my head around MVC and Linq and I’m having a disconnect in your repository function where you generate sample data. Could you please show me how to get a real LINQ select query (with multiple joins) to work. I’m getting errors I can’t get around trying to use this. I’m sure its simple I just can’t get past it.
Thanks - Mike

Thanks, Andrey. I changed from our internal PagedList to Troy Goode’s publicly available PagedList for this demo, and his works different than ours does. I will fix that bug for the next drop, which will come when I post the next article in this series. I appreciate you pointing this out.

Hi Craig,

I appreciate your example very much!
Just want to inform you about a bug: page numbering is started from 1, not from 0.
So, your linq extension methods return records starting from 11 to 20 on the first page, while should 1-10.

If change code like the following:
var jsonData = new DbModelDataContext().TourOrderGrids
.ToJqGridData(
page-1, rows, sidx + " " + sord, search,
new[]
{
"Id", "OrderNo", "OrderDate", "OrderCreatedByUserName",
"TourName", "TourDate", "AgencyName", "Sum", "StatusName"
},
null);
jsonData.Page++;
everything work fine.
