Checkbox (dojox.grid.cells.Bool) Submitting Twice

Question

I have a form with a number of columns, one being a Checkbox which is sending two form submits on-click of the checkbox itself and causing database lockouts.

index.jsp:

var gridLayout = [
  ...
  {name:"Recurring", field:"isRecurring", type: dojox.grid.cells.Bool, width: "50px",editable:true}
  ...
]

var grid = new dojox.grid.DataGrid({
  id: 'grid',
  store: myStore ,
  structure: gridLayout
});

dojo.connect(grid, 'onApplyCellEdit', function (a,index,c) { submit(index) } );

Is there an alternative to the 'onApplyCellEdit'?

Today I got the same problem.

Official response of dojo:

DojoX Grid and EnhancedGrid are deprecated in favor of dgrid and gridx. You should upgrade your code to use one of those two grids. We will consider patches to the old DojoX Grid code though.

See THIS for a workaround. I did'nt tried it yet.

What user1189762 said is true, but i think there is another way around it.

You can use the formater in your layout

      var layout = [[
                        { 'name': 'Column 1', 'field': 'id', hidden: true },
                        { 'name': 'Name', 'field': 'name', 'width': '200px' },
//This is the formatter for the Checkboix attribute so it can be in the middle in the start or wherever you need it
                        { 'name': 'Delete Mapping', 'field': '_item', 'width': '175px', formatter: checkBoxFormatter },
                        { 'name': 'Note', 'field': 'note', hidden: true },
                        { 'name': 'mappings', 'field': 'mappingelements', hidden: true }
                    ]];






 function checkBoxFormatter(value, rowIndex)
    {
    var checkBox = new CheckBox({            
                checked: false,
                onChange: function(b){ 
//The value is whatever you want the two parameter value and rowindex will get the row value or the row index
                  submit(value)
                             }
            });
    }

This Should work.
