I have loaded release 4 of 3.5 BETA, and this looks better now. it still gives the same problem once I have a column with a width of less than 60, but for the time being I can live with this.
It seems to only hapen in IE. Whenever I set a column's width less than 100, the text of the column heading appears lower than the headings of the columns with wdiths larger than 100.
I ahve copied your code into my jquery.fmatter.js file, and have included the formatoptions in my colmodel (using “_new” as my target), but the url still opens in the same window, and not a new one.
