I may as well be new to jqGrid, since this is the first time I've used it in 2 years! Anyway, I am attempting to construct a grid with a delete icon in the first column of each row, no editing is allowed, just delete. In the examples under predefined formatter I saw a grid similar to what I want to do, except that it also allowed editing. I get it to paint correctly, but I really do not understand what I need to do to make the delete operation actually do the right thing. When I watch what goes on in firebug, I see it fires off an http request to ajax.php with no parameters. I guess I am somehow supposed to provide that, but I really do not know how to do it. At minimum, I would like to provide an operation (delete) and a row id, so I can have the server code take care of the deletion. Anyway, what follows is the code. If someone could enlighten me, I would appreciate it.

jQuery(document).ready(function() {
