I've been looking around for an answer for a little while now and cannot find an one that sufficiently answers my question...
I have a JQ Grid that utilises both inline and form editing and uses blockUI to show a 'working' message while the server is doing it's stuff. this works marvellously for form editing/adding/deleting, as I use the onclickSubmit to blockUI and afterSubmit to unblockUI.
The problem comes as I cannot find a way to do this in Inline Edit. Can Anyone Suggest a way to achieve this?
What i want is to know where to catch the event that is fired when the 'Save' icon is clicked (before the request is sent to the server) so I can blockUI:
and where to catch the event that is fired when the response is sent back from the server.
There must be a way to do this using The 'editRow' or 'saveRow' as below, but i cannot work out where and in what events to Put commands such as these.
EDIT after Olegs Response
Where would I put the call to the 'editRow' function? If I use onSelectRow, It actions the it upon selecting the row - this changes The behaviour of the grid - as it now does not show the 'save' button in The Action column. Where Can I put the 'editRow' call so that it is fired when The inLine edit icon is selected?

You can use serializeRowData
callback of jqGrid for example or use ajaxRowOptions.beforeSend
to call blockUI
/block
before the request will be sent to the server. For example you can add to the list of jqGrid options
serializeRowData: function (postdata) {
$(this).block({message: "<h1>Saving the data...</h1>"});
return postdata;
}
or
ajaxRowOptions: {
beforeSend: function () {
$("#grid").block({message: "<h1>Saving the data...</h1>"});
}
}
You have to call unblockUI
/unblock
in both aftersavefunc
(or successfunc
) and errorfunc
.
