Hello,

The solution you requested require to add html content to your data.

This is tested and works as per your requirement:

Add the following style definition:

<style>
.ui-jqgrid .ui-jqgrid-btable tbody tr.jqgrow td { 
    white-space: normal !important;
    height: auto;
}
.mylongdata {
    height:90px;
    overflow-y:auto;
}
</style>

after the jqgrid css.

Your long data when comes from the server or local array enclose in div tag with class mylongdata

so it look like:

...your data here ...

You can adjust your height in mylongdata depending on your needs.

or simple use cell formatter to analyse its length and enclose it  in that div with the class

If you have difficulties with using cell formatter, please let us know.

Kind Regards,

Will
