jQuery Grid Plugin - jqGrid

Hello!

I'm missing a getter method to get the current colId (as defined in the "runtime" colModel - respecting the current column reordering).

I didn't find any method in the API docs in the WIKI.

... so I wrote my own function using a for-each-loop:

function getColId(colName) {
  var colModel = $("#mytable").jqGrid('getGridParam', 'colModel');     
  var colId = 0;
  $(colModel).each(function(i, val) {    
     if (this.name == colName) {
       colIdChildren = i;
     }     
   });
  return colId;
}

Kind regards,
Klaus.
