Apologies, I meant to update this thread earlier. I updated to the latest dev version from GitHub and it's all working now. Regarding the error in the javascript, I think I removed a portion of my config for readability. Thanks for the reply and the great work with jqGrid.

Cheers,

Harry

I could not reproduce the problem. Just tested a grouping with xml amd using xml mapping.

Also please publish you xml data too in order to reproduce the problem.

Your code has a errro at end of the settings:

And apologies for the typo in the title it should read "Grouping not working"

My setup:

- I use the xmlmap param for columns in the colModel and XML remote data

- I use repeatitems: false

- I have the latest jQuery 1.4.2 and jqGrid 3.8

I get no error in FireBug and no output although when I look at the request I'm getting XML as usual

My config is as follows:

$("#jqgrid-container-SwqkdBwfXg").jqGrid(
{
  "url":"/a-valid-url",
  "datatype":"xml",
  "mtype":"POST",
  "height":"600",
  "caption":"",
  "colNames":["KeyCriteria","Title","Description","Owner","Updated At","Created At","Actions"],
  "colModel":
  [
    {

      "sortable":true,
