Case insensitive search in jqGrid including hidden fields

Question

I have few hidden fields in my jqGrid on which I have to perform a case insensitive search (may be using regex - not sure). Is it possible? Can someone give me directions on

Answer 1

You should inseart searchhidden option equal to true in the column definition (colModel):

searchoptions:{searchhidden:true}

To make searching case insensitive you can use jQgrid option ignoreCase:true.
