Column Methods

    Version 5.5.5 introduced set_grid_method() method. You can use this method to call any jqGrid javascript method that can perform actions on the grid as a whole. However, it’s not possible to manipulate the grid on a row or cell level using set_grid_method.

    The example below demonstrates set_grid_method to grouping header by calling the jqGrid “setGroupHeader” method.
