I don't know if this applies to your case, but I had the same issue, and after spending a day on scratching my head and then half an hour on debugging jqGrid, I have found that it ignores scrollOffset whenever height you specify for the grid is not a strict integer, like "20em" for example:

if(isNaN(ts.p.height)) {

} else {

aw -= scw; // =ts.p.scrollOffset

hs = true;

}

(grid.base.js #1966)

in my case, I tried setting grid height in ems, like "20em", and isNaN returns true for this value. Conclusion: follow the docs strictly, which say that height "can be set as number (in this case we mean pixels) or as percentage (only 100% is acceped) or value of auto is acceptable."

Hi,

when I resize the width of the grid and scrolling is not needed, the space for the vertical scrollbar is grabbed by the grid table.

If I change the number of rows and the vertical scrollbar is needed, I get a horizontal scrollbar too, because jqGrid doesn't resize the grid table and the width of the scrollbar is added to the width of the grid table.

Is it possible to force that the space for the vertical scrollbar is never grabbed by the grid table?

The option scrollOffset didn't work.

I used jqGrid 4.2, jQuery 1.6.4, jQuery UI 1.8.16 with Firefox 7.0.1 and Windows 7 x64

Best regards
