It works!

Do the same in ui.jqgrid.css - look section header in the css.

The solution you suggested here above (editing grid.css) worked very well for me. But after upgrading to jqGrid 3.5.2 (and themeroller), I have the same problem again.

Is it still possible to increase the height of the column name row as before, so one can have a line break in the header???

/T

I have a column called "Cases # (Age 0-4)".  I tried to change the css and add break tag in colName. It worked. The column name break into two lines:

Cases #

(Age 0-4)  

On the edit form, the coloumn name also break into two lines. But I want o keep the column name in one line on the edit form. Is that doable?

Thanks,

Maggie

Here is the solution which works for me. (Little ugly only in basic theme)

Open the grid.css file and correct the following lines:

table.scroll thead tr th {

...

height:18px;

}

to

table.scroll thead tr th {

...

height:auto;

}

table.scroll th div {

...

height:18px;

}

to

table.scroll th div {

...

height:auto;

}

and finally

table.scroll th span {

...

height:18px;

}

to

table.scroll th span {

...

height:auto;

}

Do not forget to set the brake tag in colNames

Enjoy.

I'm also very interested in getting this work. I have been testing with several methods but never get it working. I have also read a couple of posts before in this forum regarding the same issue. (Only found this post right now http://www.trirand.com/blog/?p.....38;ret=all ). I can guess there are even more users that migth be interested in this.

I hope there will be a solution to this soon!

Thanks Tony and your team for a great grid!
Keep up the good work!

Never tested, but try colNames:['Probem <br/>Code',...]

I've searched the documentation and can't find the answer to this:

Is it possible to make the column heading two lines of text instead of one?

example: Probem Code

want it to be:

Problem

  Code

(without the big space between the lines)
