Zend Framework getRequest and JSONStore start/limit params

[sourcepond]

Hi All,

Has anyone had any experience trying to paginate a datagrid, when the URL for a JSON store is to a ZF action?

The problem I have. ExtJs from what I have read sends ?start=x&limit=y

I can't seem to figure out how to get Zend to interpret that type of query, and was hoping there was a way to format the JSONStore param sting to set the url with /start/x/limit/y

Is this possible, or how can I use the existing way ExtJS posts the request with Zend?

in request object you can use getParam method
in action object you can use _getParam method

Hi Vahid,

I know about the getParam method. However, when ExtJS sends the request it uses ?start=x&limit=y, and I have no idea how to fetch that from getParam, as it is expecting something like /start/x/limit/y OR x/y - it's the way the string is sent to the framework that I'm unsure how to process.

Any pointers would be great. Cheers for the response.

Regards,

Hi,

Sounds like you need to change the ordinary Ext-HTTP/url-encode for encoding the params differently,which is what the store(which Jsonstore extends) uses. Can be done in the ext class i think,replacing & to /. I haven't done it myself. Also might affect many other function?

Cheers.

Why dont use POST OR GET param?
this is simple code for get json result fo extjs grid with limit for paginator in action method

    $start= $this->_getParam("start",0);
    $limit= $this->_getParam("limit",20);
    
    $paginator= new Zend_Paginator_Adapter_DbTableSelect($select);
    
    $json["success"]=true;
    $json["total"]=$paginator->count();
    $json["rows"]=$paginator->getItems($start,$limit)->toArray();
