I have a grid using autowidth to fit the user's browser window width. I have attached a resize handler to the window which sets the new width for the grid, when the window is resized. This works very nicely. I have also activated the top pager using the option toppager: true. Its width however is not set when calling setGridWidth. As a workaround, I have added code for manually setting the toppager's width in my resize handler. But I believe this is a bug in jqGrid and should be fixed there.

Great product by the way. It really integrates well with ASP.NET MVC and works outstandingly.
