jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Hi,

JqGridImport is not working, I have a grid with 2 columns and 2 buttons, one to export the grid configuration and the other to import it back.

to export the grid I use the following command by storing the jsonstring in a global variable called 'options'

options = jQuery(

"#list").jqGridExport({ exptype: "jsonstring" });

 then in the other button I import the settings back by using  :

$(

"#list").jqGrid('jqGridImport', { imptype: "jsonstring", impstring: options, jsonGrid: { config: "grid", data: "data"} }).trigger("reloadGrid"); but it doesn't do anything but reloading the grid.

This my jsonstring:

Please help me figuring out what the problem is and  would you provide a link if there is a full working example online exposing how it works.

Thanks in advance,
