beforeRequest event jqGrid: set jqGrid page before url is called

Question

I am trying to set the page variable in jqGrid before the GET request to the URL...

        jQuery(\"#frTable\").jqGrid({                
            cmTemplate:         


        

Answer 1

I had the same problem but I got it working doing this on the BeforeRequest function:

$('#GRID_ID').jqGrid('setGridParam', { postData: { page: 4} });
