ListGrid.setFieldError() vs. canEdit

[yavery]

Hi,

I need to display a warning/error for some records in a list while the list isn't marked
editable (canEdit=true), per say.

I produced the following testbed using http://www.smartclient.com/index.jsp#recordClicks

isc.ListGrid.create({
    ID: "countryList",
    width:500, height:224, alternateRecordStyles:true,
    data: countryData,
    /*canEdit : true,*/
    fields:[
        {name:"countryCode", title:"Flag", width:50, type:"image", imageURLPrefix:"flags/16/", imageURLSuffix:".png"},
        {name:"countryName", title:"Country"},
        {name:"capital", title:"Capital"},
        {name:"continent", title:"Continent"}
    ],
    recordClick: "countryList.setFieldError(1, 'countryName', 'this is an error message')"
})

isc.DetailViewer.create({
    ID:"countryDetails",
    width:500, top:250,
    fields:[
        {name:"countryName", title:"Country"},
        {name:"countryCode", title:"Code"},
        {name:"government", title:"Government"}
    ],
    emptyMessage:"click a row in the grid"
})

The field errors seem to be displayed only when the ListGrid is marked editable (in this testbed,
the error should be showing up when clicking in a cell).

Is there a way to have errors show up even when the list isn't marked editable?

Thanks,

You could make it editable but mark all fields as non-editable and make the editEvent "none".

Thanks for the suggested alternative.

Kind regards,
