beforeShowForm: function(form){alert('before show form');},

The function syntax is correct and should work. You may have it in the wrong area. It should go into the navGrid section.

$('#tab3-grid').jqGrid('navGrid', '#tab3-pager',
   {view:true, closeOnEscape:true}, // general parameters.
   {jqModal:true, beforeShowForm: function(f){alert('hello');}}, // edit options.
   {jqModal:true, beforeShowForm: dosomething}, // add options.
   {jqModal:true, afterSubmit: serverMessage}, // del options.
   {jqModal:true}, // search options.
   {jqModal:true} // view options.
   );

    var dosomething = function(formid){
       // stuff to do.
   }

Try the recreateForm and beforeShowForm in pager add section ...

recreateForm: true,

beforeShowForm: function(form){

$("#field0 from colModel", form).attr('value', '3');

$("#field1 from colModel", form).attr('hidden', 'true');

...

etc

Please help!! I am newbie on jggrid, loved it. However, there is a challenge. When I open a blank form to add new row to the grid, I need some fields on the form to be dynamically updated by going to the database to search for data if I change a field on the form. I found the code in the javascript to create a form for adding new row, may I change it to read from an external file (like an asp, php page) or is there any way to do it properly??
