Issues with multiple checkbox columns in IE
« on: December 15, 2014, 08:14:06 pm »
In my grid, I have more than 40 columns - multiple checkbox columns, some are fixed on the left -- and there are scroll bars, of course.

All of the above works fine in Firefox (all major versions), Chrome (all major versions); but, I have an issue with that with IE 10+; in IE, when the check box is clicked -- the entire grid view moves to the left; the fixed columns are not visible anymore; somehow, that click is triggering a re-centering of the grid; a second click gets it all back normal again. This only happens when the cellClick function is active AND only when a check box is clicked. The re-centering does not happen if I don't use the cellClick function. I need to have only one checkbox checked on each row. If one checkbox column is checked, the other checkboxes on the same row should be unchecked. I have this coded in the cellClick function (not included in the fiddle).

Questions:
1.    What can we do to fix the above in IE?
2.    Is there a better way of dealing with the checkboxes than what I have?

Below is the link to a fiddle:

When you run the fiddle - and click on the right most check box columns -- it works fine in other browsers, except IE.

The mentioned issue in IE can be resolved by use of selectionModel: { type: 'cell' }

http://jsfiddle.net/nbj0965r/3/

Checkboxes are easier to handle by use of inbuilt column.cb as shown in this demo

check event can be used to uncheck other checkboxes in the same row and return false in this event as you don't want to select row upon checkbox selection.
