jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Hi,

The searchhidden option of searchoptions in the column model does not work, hidden fields are always searchable.

I am using the multi search form. 

Looking at the source code i found this line in grid.formedit.js (line 52 in 3.5.3)

ignoreHiding = (soptions.searchhidden === true) || true;

this always evaluates to true, regardless of what searchhidden is set to.

From what I can gather from the docs, the only time this should be true is if it is explicitly set to true, so I changed the line to:

ignoreHiding = soptions.searchhidden === true

And it now seems to work.

Thanks,

Richard
