How to refresh the data in a jqGrid?

Question

I have been trying to get a grid to be updated from the datasource when a button is pushed.

So I have in the click event something like this:

$('#grid').jqGrid('trigger','reloadGrid');

However this does not work and I get an error thrown for unknown method 'trigger'

I have also tried

$('#grid').jqGrid('trigger("reloadGrid")');

How would I execute this function?

I do wish they would change the documentation for jqGrid as right now it is a bit deceiving.. – Earlz Jun 28 '10 at 19:06
The `bind()` and `trigger()` methods are part of the jQuery core, FYI – Peter Bailey Jun 28 '10 at 19:10

yes they are but their documentation does not make that obvious and the reloadGrid function is not listed in green as somethin requiring a "special method of calling" – Earlz Jun 28 '10 at 20:30
Is this method of refreshing memory-leak-safe ? – Anton Kasianchuk Aug 21 '14 at 13:58

This worked for me.

jQuery('#grid').jqGrid('clearGridData');
jQuery('#grid').jqGrid('setGridParam', {data: dataToLoad});
jQuery('#grid').trigger('reloadGrid');

Try this to reload jqGrid with new data

jQuery("#grid").jqGrid('setGridParam',{datatype:'json'}).trigger('reloadGrid');
