jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Hi,

I have 2 custom elements in my coldmodel. Both are set to hidden. One is a Button in the form and the other one is a normal col. I set both to hidden as the data is only needed for the formular.

I also added functions to add these elements to the form. My problem is that if I set the one col to hidden it wont be displayed in the form. If I set hidden to true I see this row in the table which I dont want.

Here is a extract of the code

            colModel :[
                {name:'id',index:'id', sorttype:"int",editrules:{readonly:true},hidden:true},

                {name:'username',index:'username',width:100,editable:true,editoptions:{size:50,maxlength:50},editrules:{required:true,custom:true,custom_func:checkUsername},formoptions:{label:m_gridusername+'*',rowpos:2}},
                 .....
                {name:'software',index:'software',width:50,editable:true,hidden:true,edittype:'custom',editoptions:{custom_element: SoftwareElm, custom_value:SoftwareValue},formoptions:{label:'Software*',rowpos:15,colpos:1}},
                {name:'scdsearchbutton',index:'scdsearchbutton',width:50,editable:true,hidden:true,edittype:'custom',editoptions:{custom_element: ScdButtonElm, custom_value:ScdButtonValue},formoptions:{label:'',rowpos:1,colpos:2}},                
            ],                                                                               

The Button is displayed while the Custom Multiselectbox isnt displayed in my form.

How Can I display the the software element in the form without showing the the col in the table?

I tryed to set it with

$("#tr_software").css('display','inline');

but this looks ugly as all other rows dont have the display property
