The easiest way to customize look and behaviour of them is to use series of CButtonColumn properties, like: updateButtonImageUrl (path to image for update button), updateButtonLabel (label for the update button; not HTML-encoded), updateButtonOptions (HTML options for this button, used in the way as many htmlOptions property for many widgets) and updateButtonUrl (a PHP expresion th...

In this article I'll try to explain how to use standard quick search fields in CGridView with customized columns.
For example:
We have a record in a database with field switch having 0 or 1 values. After that we want a user to see on or off instead 1 or 0.
So we do the usual thing:

<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CGridView', array(
//.....
array(
    'name'=>'...

I ran into a problem and on irc we worked it out. Since there is a lack on information on filters in genral i thought i'd start sharing all my findings, might be usefull for other people.

This tip created in conjunction with IRC #yii channel users emilsedgh and tydeas - thanks!

<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.grid.CGridView', array(

'dataProvider' => $dataprovider,
'id'=>'recipient_table',
    'selectionChanged'=>'updateEditForm',
'columns' => array(
	'rec_id',
            'org.nachname',
            'org.vorname',
            'org_id',
            array(
                'class'=>'CButtonColumn',
                'template'=>'{...

Since I used CGridView for a first time, I didn't like how it handled operations like sorting, filtering, changing page and etc using AJAX.

I've seen many tickets regarding how to show friendly delete confirmation using CGridView's CButtonColumn in ajax request. If you are using relational database, after producing CRUD functionality when you try to delete a record in ajax mode which has child record it can't be deleted and you can see the ajax loader forever. By this way you can't show the users if a record has been successfully dele...

This tutorial will show you how to create Ajax dialog which allows to create new model, update or delete existing model. It works with simple links, CGridView button column links, adds a minimal amount of code and degrades gracefully with JavaScript turned off.

This is what I did. Its the EASIEST solution that I know of. I just reused the advanced search done in CGridView.

Using filters on CGridView with CActiveDataProvider is easy, but with CArrayDataProvider it is a bit tricky.

I have had to do this a couple of times now so I figured I would share it with the community. I am going to keep this short because I really hope that you are familiar with jQueryUI's Sortable class before starting this tutorial.

The popular [CListView] and [CGridView] widgets each take a data provider and iterate over each data object produced, calling the user's code to render each row one at a time, and most are familiar with the use of the $data variable to represent the current model object or array.

My article Display the full record in a CJuiDialog uses ajax to view a record in dialog on clicking the 'view-icon'.

If you have to display a overview of related data in a table, you can use the CListView, create your view with table/tr/td tags and implement db-queries in the view to display detaildata of the current (master-)record.

Lets say we have two models and relation between them:

In this tip, I'll help you to change in few second buttons of your CGridView. I hope you like it =).

A few days ago, i worked for CGridView exporting functional for my client. He asked me to create a simple exporting to a CSV file a CGridView search results.
