no tested, but leave the edit button with original behavior then make use of afterShowForm like code below

afterShowForm:function (formid) {
var rowid = $('#grid_test121').jqGrid('getGridParam', 'selrow');

           if (rowid == null) {
                $('#grid_test121').jqmHide();
                // your code here
           }
       },

So I've generated a grid and want to override the click event when the auto-generated edit button is clicked. The client was us to display a JS alert modal dialog when no row is selected. I tried overriding the "click" event and that works, but if they then select a row, nothing else happens.. Is there a way to capture the click event, verify that a row is selected, then continue processing the edit functionality?? Below is my code for the basic buttons.

$('#myGridName').jqGrid().navGrid('#myGridName',

{ add: false, del: true, search: false, refresh: false, edit: true },
