I am new to visualforce development and I have a question regarding lookup fields.
I have a visualforce page in which I am displaying data using jqgrid. The controller returns json data, which is consumed by the jqgrid. This works fine.
When I select and edit a row, jqgrid generates a form dyanmically with HTML input field based on the column definition given and prepopulates the data for that row under each field.
Now my problem is , one of the field in the form is a look up field and I want to show the lookupfield icon next to the field. in otherwords, I want to mimic the behaviour of lookup field on a html input field.
Does any one have suggestions on how this can be done?
I have a visualforce page and I am using jqgrid to display data on this page. The url that the jqgrid points to is a visualforce page(https://test.visual.force.com/apex/GridResults) which outputs only JSON data. This page does not have any header or html information.
The problem is that when I run the page with grid, the grid renders with column names but no shows no data.
The page which outputs JSON data is working correclty. I have pasted below the code.
jQuery("#list").jqGrid({ url:"https://test.visual.force.com/apex/GridResults", datatype:"json", colNames:[{!fieldNames}],-- property in controller which outputs fieldnames colModel:[{!colModel}],-- property in controller which outputs column definition rowNum:10, rowTotal:10, rowList:[20,40,60], loadonce:true, mtype:"GET", gridView:true, pager:'#pager', sortname:'Record ID', sortorder:"desc", width:1200, height:400, caption:"Accounts" }); jQuery("#list").jqGrid('navGrid',"#pager",{ edit:true, add:true,del:false}) };
Any ideas on how the JSON data from the page can be consumed by the jqgrid? Help much appreciated.
