Question

I have a button named [Filter] that I’m trying to call the grid search modal on click. I have yet been able to find the call that the search button uses inline.

It uses <span class="ui-icon ui-icon-search"></span> classes for the search icon/button.

So something like

$('.filter').live('click', function (event) {
        $('ui-icon-search').trigger('click');
});

Edit, found it.

$('.filter-grid').live('click', function (event) {
$("#search_products").click();
});

Was calling the parent div id on click and not the span.
