jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

I used the example here:

http://ryanfait.com/sticky-footer/

Works great until I have a grid that contains a date picker.  Then it seems to add about a 10px pad or margin below the footer causing the page to have vertical scroll bars.

                    { label: 'Creation Date', name: 'date', index: 'CreationDate', width: 100, formatter: 'date', formatoptions: { srcformat: 'm/d/Y', newformat: 'm/d/Y'}, searchoptions: { dataInit: function(el){$(el).datepicker({ onSelect: function() { $("#grid")[0].triggerToolbar(); } });} } }

This is the culprit.  Using the redmond ui scheme.

Thanks in advance for your help.
