By default, the check box input instantiated from the multiselect option is using the first column value, in this case an integer representing a team number { name:"team", index:"team"...

When all the team numbers are unique this is fine, however when several rows are displayed along with team , it results in multiple redundant ids, and pushes those ids down into the dom and checkbox input leading to weird events.

So whenever team = 1, one is put in the following structure

<tr class="ui-widget-content jqgrow ui-row-ltr" role="row" id="1"> 

<input type="checkbox" class="cbox" id="jqg_summary-table_1"

So what is the proper way to override the row id with a unique value ? .

Working with key and index in the column model I was not able to override the row id, is there another method I am missing ?

Thanks.
