How about a "paging" option that instead of building a pager and only showing ONE page of data at a time, you hook into the scrollbar and whenever the user scrolls to the bottom you then request to the server for more rows of data to APPEND to the current client side results.
This helps solve the issue of having to count rows to determine how many pages there even are.
Yahoo mail has a real nice implementation of this.

I think this is already available.. Check out the demo under "New in version 3.4" => "Autoloading data when scroll".

LOL! Thanks! I'll look into that.

The problem with the current implementation in jqGrid is that the scrollbar does not indicate to the user the position within the current table, nor the table's full size. If one page of data is loaded, then the scrollbar only shows that the table is only one page long, whereas the backend might have hundreds of pages. With this behavior, you are not able to reach the last page of the data just by dragging the scrollbar's cursor. The only way to get to the last page of the data is by scrolling to the end of the currently loaded data, waiting for the next page to load, scrolling again to the end of table, waiting,... repeated until you finally reach the last page.
Yahoo Mail uses an appropriately sized gif image to force the proper scrollbar on the right. This way, even if you one one page loaded in the table, the scrollbar shows that the entire dataset is much larger, and you may scroll to the real bottom of the dataset.

Hello David,
Yes you are right. In the next major releases I will try to correct this and add a more power to the local data manipulation
