dojox.grid.DataGrid cannot resize columns when using width="auto"

[Josh Trutwin]

I was playing around with DataGrid? (1.3beta1) and noticed that you cannot resize the columns of a data grid if you use width="auto" on all your fields.

Here's the grid I tried:

<table dojoType="dojox.grid.DataGrid?"

class="grid" store="jsonStore" autoHeight="10" query="{ id: '*' }" rowsPerPage="20">

<thead>

<tr>

<th field="id" width="auto">Id</th> <th field="name" width="auto">Event Name</th> <th field="name" width="auto">Start Date</th> <th field="name" width="auto">Start Time</th> <th field="name" width="auto">Event Type</th>

</tr>

</thead>

</table>

If I change the first field to width="50px" then I can resize only that column.

I think this is related to another old grid bug related to percentage widths not allowing you to change the column size.

This is correct. If a column is set to "auto", that means it takes up all the remaining space so it should not be resizeable.
