Hi,

First of all to say great plugin.

I am wondering if my filter/search requirements can be met.

So, just to explain the above mockup. We have a list of statuses, which map to a status category. New/Pending = Initiated. Completed/Cancelled/Expired = Ended.

What I want to do is have it so that checking one of the checkboxes below the grid would automatically filter the grid by the child status associated with the status category. I.e. if I checked 'Initiated' only rows with a status of New and Pending should appear in the grid. (These checkboxes would be independent controls on the page).

So far, what I have seen of the search functionality is that the search is built into the grid itself, and that you have to select a column from a dropdown list in the search box and then type the search criteria.

I am wondering if I would be able to do with jqgrid? I have been able to achieve the above using the DataTables plugin, but I would prefer to use jqgrid if possible.

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
