Not sure if this is jqGrid or how I am using it. I have a master page with both a nav div (with a jqGrid tree) and a main content div which I load based on what I need. I have a search form with jqGrid which works fine in the main content div when I load it directly. I have a second scenario where I load renderpartial with tabs and in one of the tabs I render a partialview with a jqGrid in it. At that second level (renderpartial w/ renderpartial and jqGrid, the grid won't load).

If I try to load the search form that works in in the div only, no problem. As luck would have it I'm in the early stages and on the search form I have two other grids loading locally
