[Solved] Remember Filter and Sort when rebind

[Janus Pienaar]

Hi

Is there a way that the Grid can remember the filter and sorting options when a rebind occurs?

Thanks

Hello Janus,

Could you please elaborate little more on this requirement? What will cause rebinding of the grid?
In general the filter and sort expressions are placed in the query string if server binding mode is used. In Ajax binding mode the [GridAction] attribute process the filter and sort expressions. Hence you can retrieve them in the action method, which is called on ajax.

I expect he means when you leave the grid page and then return. I seem to recall some control (perhaps not teleriks) would let you store that stuff in a cookie and it would automatically retrieve it. 

Is there anything built into the grid to get this behavior?

Hi,

I think you could try grid.ajaxRequest(true).

I don't see how that solves the problem. 

Also, the API doesn't show that ajaxRequest accepts a parameter. This just seems like what the refresh button will call. 

Perhaps you can be more specific?
