Problem Using Cgridview, Pagination With Filter

SOVLVED: Solution at end.

When using CGridView with a filter on a column the pagination doesn’t work once I have selected something via the filter. I get “Error 400. Your request is invalid.” popup when trying to change the page.

Causes the error:

Load the page

Change filter option

Change GridView page via pagination -> throws error

Doesn’t throw error:

Load the page

Change GridView page via pagination -> works smoothly

Only when I utilize the filter does it do this. Anyone have any idea what is happening?

Here is how I am setting up my filter




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

    'id' => 'custom-list', 

    'dataProvider' => $dataProvider, 

    'filter' => MyModel::model(),

    'columns' => array(

        array(

            'header' => 'Type',

            'filter' => CHtml::dropDownList('MyModel[type]', '', MyModel::model()->getList()),

            'name' => 'type'

        )

        array(

            'header' => 'Name',

            'name' => 'name'

        )

    )

)

I found the problem by going through the inspector looking at the url. Found I was setting the dataProviders pagination params which was causing a parameter to not be set for the action. So, to solve it I removed that 1 line of code for setting the pagination params (when I was utilizing building the GridView only by Ajax).
