html

<table  id='grid'....>

<tr>....</tr>

</table>

javascript

$("#grid").empty().jqGrid({,,,});

Enjoy

Now, my problem. I'm writing a widget for a PHP framework called Yii. This widget will use your plugin for providing a grid. The problem is that:

<table id="list1" class="scroll" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"></table>

is not valid XHTML ("Error: end tag for "table" which is not finished"). However, placing tr's inside the table causes severe collateral damage to the grid 🙁

Is there any solution for this (it is not really something fatal, but makes the webpages not to validate, and gov overhere requires strict XHTML validation)

Thanks in advanced.
