jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

I have a little more specific a request.  Here's a list of the features that my developer says we are using with the ExtJS grid.  I will eventually get the time to plow through the jqGrid documentation and associated discussion.  But in the meantime if anyone can verify whether people are doing the following with the jqGrid I would be most appreciative (the first few items are obvious ones and I know from just looking at our own use of the jqGrid that it capable of these):

1: Columns are Sortable

2: Each Column has a filter on it(Can apply multiple filters at the same time)

3: Remote Paging

4:  Columns can be moved around, Hidden or made visible

5: Columns can be resized

6: In Row Editing and Saving

7: Multi and Single row select

8: Grid expands to fill page or container

9: Grid has its own scrolling mechanism

10:Columns can be locked in place so they don’t move when grid is scrolled.

Just a quick yes,no,maybe would be really helpful in guiding me at a high level.  Thanks for any attention anyone can give.

Regards,

Mike

Tony --

Thank you very much for taking the time to reply; I can only imagine how insanely busy you must be.  I will be pursuing this general question with my team over the next several weeks and will report back to the forum anything interesting that I learn along the way.

One question I would like to pose up front is whether it is insane to think of trying to decorate the existing jqGrid with an extJS-like dropdown in each column heading, where some of the functionality I identified in my last message can be handled in the way we want and triggered from a single place.  Not having looked into the jqGrid code yet at all and so not having a sense of how much effort such a tactic might involve, I would be extremely appreciative to just get a gut-level ruling from some of you more experienced jqGrid folks as to whether such a move seems "doable" enough to merit further investigation.

What I'm thinking in general is of slapping onto each column heading a drop-down symbol that when clicked would present a popup menu with selections (a la ExtJS) like "Ascending", "Descending", "Filters", "Columns", etc...  The handlers for each of these would then manipulate the undrlying grid programmatically to implement the desired functionality.  This seems theoretically possible, but I'm wondering if in acutality it would be too difficult.

Thanks for any insight anyone can provide.

Regards,

Mike

Hello Mike,

Thank you for the interest.

As you can imagine jqGrid can not cover all the things in ExtJS and vice versa.

I thing the grids should have diffrent approaches for solving certain problems.

The grids should be different.

Instead tey should have common properties.

Shortley here are may answers if I understand them right

And you can look for the most features in jqGrid here:
