Hi theallen,
I've made a great deal of use of jqGrid which I've found to be an excellent piece of software. I've always been meaning to give DataTables a try as well but haven't yet got round to it. Assuming you're aware of jqGrid how would you compare / contrast it with DataTables?
- gogiel 13y agojqgrid is piece of crap from programmer's point of view. Its code is a true mess. Its made of callback hell, stupid attribute and variable names (like a, b, c, ap, vp, really wtf) and spaghetti code.
- theallan 13y agoAbsolutely aware of jqGrid, but to be honest I can't comment on how it compares to DataTables has I've never really worked with jqGrid. Perhaps I've taken the wrong approach, but I've tended not to look at the other table libraries, focusing instead on making DataTables as good as I can for its intended purpose on its own. Having said that, I'm sure there is inspiration I can take from the other libraries, as some are very impressive.
