We want to replace jQgrid with another similar jQuery library.
Why?
- Hard to exactly control and style the HTML, e.g. wrap something with a span tag
- Not maintained since the license changed
- ...more?
Wanted features
- Sort by column
- Inline edit or pop-up edit
- Pop-up dialog should handle CActiveForm and model rules validation
- Edit single cell in-line?
- Massive actions, e.g. marking 10 elements and delete all
- Fetch using Ajax
- Filter and/or search
- Pagination
- NB: There's a conflict between real-time filter and pagination. If nr of rows is very large, loading of complete table will take long time.
- GPL or MIT license (or another free licence like a speech)
- i18n

Other notes
CPDB
CPDB uses jQgrid to open up - within the table - possibilities to edit attributes and surveys for one participant. This should probably be a dialog instead.
Dialog or inline
- Actual edit in token don't update link. And we have issue with some control. A dialog edit fix this 2 issue more easily.
- Alterantive : use http://www.appelsiini.net/projects/jeditable (still think dioalog editor is the best)
