Thanks mdipierro!!
I actually saw that in the header of the generated page but didn't put
it together. For what ever reason, trying to call web2py_component
from another function wouldn't work, but calling web2py_ajax_page
directly worked!
Working code:
jQuery("#grid_id").jqGrid({
onSelectRow: function(postdata) {
web2py_ajax_page('get','/Test/default/a_form/'+
(postdata),null,'my_form');
}
});
