Re: Coldfusion and dhtmlxGrid

Yes and no but mostly no. You will need to feed the grid the data and the
way that most apps like this work is that you must feed it structured data
in the form of XML or JSON. Technically you do not have the create a
physical file and can pass it a document on the fly via CFcontent. But
if you are asking: Can you feed it a raw record set from CFQuery with out
an intermediary format the answer is no. It needs to be in a format
that dhtmlxGrid will understand. In this case XML.

 Hi all,

 I'm trying to use dhtmlxGrid in one of my projects and I had a question.

 What I would like to do is run a query or stored procedure, get the
 resulting data set and then have the results formatted for use in
 dhtmlxGrid. I don't need to write data back to the DB I am just need to
 display them.

 I have gotten the demo to work with basic text and the xml file

 (http://docs.dhtmlx.com/doku.php?id=tuto ... populating)

 However, is there a way to take the query results and pass them directly to
 dhtmlxGrid directly without having to write the data to a file and then
 reading it?

 I have tried something like this:

 var mygrid;
 function doInitGrid(){

 mygrid = new dhtmlXGridObject('mygrid_container');
 mygrid.setImagePath(codebase/imgs/);
 mygrid.setHeader(Model,Qty,Price);
 mygrid.setInitWidths(*,150,150);
 mygrid.setColAlign(left,right,right);
 mygrid.setSkin(light);
 mygrid.init();
 mygrid.parse(cfoutput#xmlString#/cfoutput);
 xmlString is a valid XML object but the grid does not format like this. The
 source comes out like this:

 var mygrid;
 function doInitGrid(){

 mygrid = new dhtmlXGridObject('mygrid_container');
 mygrid.setImagePath(codebase/imgs/);
 mygrid.setHeader(Model,Qty,Price);
 mygrid.setInitWidths(*,150,150);
 mygrid.setColAlign(left,right,right);
 mygrid.setSkin(light);
 mygrid.init();
 mygrid.parse(?xml version=1.0 encoding=UTF-8?

Thanks for the reply. I think I'm on the XML bus for now.
