Ajax Girl

Developers are always looking for a great grid control that is easy to use, customizable and, of course, feature-rich. Paulo Mariñas has created just that for jQuery developers. Flexigrid is an extremely flexible grid control with provides many of the features highly-desired by developers. These include:

• Resizable columns
• Resizable height and width
• Sortable column headers
• Cool theme
• Can convert an ordinary table
• Ability to connect to an ajax data source (XML and JSON[new])
• Paging
• Show/hide columns
• Toolbar
• Search
• Accessible API

Version 1.0b3, which was recently released provides:

• Fixed paging problem on multiple instances
• Mootools and Prototype noConflict() compatibility problems fixed
• New onError event on ajax interaction, (it will pass what the server said in a variable called data), allowing you to handle server problems
• New $().flexAddData method, allows you to directly add new data to the grid using your own data source.
• New preProcess API, allows you to modify or process data sent by server before passing it to Flexigrid, allowing you to use your own JSON format for example.
• Single Rows Select just use { singleSelect: true } in the options
