How make check box in the jqgrid uncheckable

Question

I need to make a check-box uncheckable in JqGrid. I have made a custom formatter to call a function for onClick event of the checkobx.

return "<input type=\"checkbox\" " + bchk +" onClick=\"clickMe\" " + " value=\""+
       cval+"\" offval=\"no\" "+ds+ "/>";

This function gets called fine. Now I don't know how to stop the user from checking the unchecked check-box. What I am trying to say is the user should be able to un-check but should be able to check again.

Thanks, Abhi

If the checkbox can be used by user, the changes will be not saved in the grid automatically. How you plan to read new changed checkbox states? — Oleg, Feb 24 '11 at 20:55

I recommend you to make unobtrusive style binding to the onClick event (see this and this answers for details. Inside of event handle you can use e.preventDefault(); to prevent default behavior of the chechbox click.

Thx for your reply Oleg,but I figured it out. I added the following code loadComplete : function(){ jQuery(".jqgrow td input").each(function(){ jQuery(this).click(function(){ $(this).attr('checked', false); }); }); } – Abhi Feb 24 '11 at 21:31
