ram2010 on Grid with Select column bug on default Value

Using JQGRID 4.2.0 there is a bug when setting the default selected value when a dropdown list is loaded in a grid.

The reason for this is that in jQuery.jqGrid.js it uses the value to set selected in the dropdown list and not the text.

Replace
if (a.inArray(a.trim(a(this).text()), n) > -1 || a.inArray(a.trim(a(this).val()), n) > -1) this.selected = "selected"
									
with:
if (a.inArray(a.trim(a(this).text()), n) > -1){

Where the case "select" in the createEl function

This is a bug as the default value to be selected should ALWAYS be the text which appears in the grid before the row is selected.

Hopfully this can be fixed in future jquery grid releases.
