Property Details

a javascript function that will be invoked after a successful AJAX response is received. The function signature is function(id, data) where 'id' refers to the ID of the list view 'data' the received ajax response data.

the type ('GET' or 'POST') of the AJAX requests. If not set, 'GET' will be used. You can set this to 'POST' if you are filtering by many fields at once and have a problem with GET query string length. Note that in POST mode direct links and enableHistory feature may not work correctly!

the ID of the container whose content may be updated with an AJAX response. Defaults to null, meaning the container for this list view instance. If it is set false, it means sorting and pagination will be performed in normal page requests instead of AJAX requests. If the sorting and pagination should trigger the update of multiple containers' content in AJAX fashion, these container IDs may be listed here (separated with comma).

a javascript function that will be invoked if an AJAX update error occurs.

The function signature is function(xhr, textStatus, errorThrown, errorMessage)

• xhr is the XMLHttpRequest object.
• textStatus is a string describing the type of error that occurred. Possible values (besides null) are "timeout", "error", "notmodified" and "parsererror"
• errorThrown is an optional exception object, if one occurred.
• errorMessage is the CGridView default error message derived from xhr and errorThrown. Usefull if you just want to display this error differently. CGridView by default displays this error with an javascript.alert()

 ...
 'ajaxUpdateError'=>'function(xhr,ts,et,err,id){ $("#"+id).text(err); }',
 ...

the URL for the AJAX requests should be sent to. CHtml::normalizeUrl() will be called on this property. If not set, the current page URL will be used for AJAX requests.

the name of the GET variable that indicates the request is an AJAX request triggered by this widget. Defaults to 'ajax'. This is effective only when ajaxUpdate is not false.

the base script URL for all list view resources (e.g. javascript, CSS file, images). Defaults to null, meaning using the integrated list view resources (which are published as assets).

a javascript function that will be invoked before an AJAX update occurs. The function signature is function(id) where 'id' refers to the ID of the list view.

the URL of the CSS file used by this list view. Defaults to null, meaning using the integrated CSS file. If this is set false, you are responsible to explicitly include the necessary CSS file in your page.

whether to leverage the DOM history object. Set this property to true to persist state of list across page revisits. Note, there are two limitations for this feature: - this feature is only compatible with browsers that support HTML5. - expect unexpected functionality (e.g. multiple ajax calls) if there is more than one grid/list on a single page with enableHistory turned on.

the view used for rendering each data item. This property value will be passed as the first parameter to either CController::renderPartial or CWidget::render to render each data item. In the corresponding view template, the following variables can be used in addition to those declared in viewData:

• $this: refers to the owner of this list view widget. For example, if the widget is in the view of a controller, then $this refers to the controller.
• $data: refers to the data item currently being rendered.
• $index: refers to the zero-based index of the data item currently being rendered.
• $widget: refers to this list view widget instance.

the HTML tag name for the container of all data item display. Defaults to 'div'.

the CSS class name that will be assigned to the widget container element when the widget is updating its content via AJAX. Defaults to 'list-view-loading'.

the text shown after sort links. Defaults to empty.

the text shown before sort links. Defaults to 'Sort by: '.

the jQuery selector of the HTML elements that may trigger AJAX updates when they are clicked. If not set, the pagination links and the sorting links will trigger AJAX updates.
