Question

I have a jqGrid which contains folders and documents. I want to be able to drag and drop the documents into the folders within the same grid. Does jqGrid support that, either directly or via a few different plugins, or do I have to write custom javascript for it?

Thanks.

Answer 1

jqGrid has support for dragging and dropping rows between two grids.

You may be able to connect the grid to itself and handle the events (assuming the events fire when a grid is connected to itself)

connectWith – Determines the target grid(s) to which the row should be dropped. The option is a string. In case of more than one grid the ids should be delemited with comma – i.e ”#grid1, #grid2”
