jqGrid multiselect "check all" in header: how to hide it?

Question

I use jqGrid with the multiselect option set to true.

I'm looking for a way to hide or disable the first checkbox (the one in the row of the column names) so that users can't use the "check all/uncheck all" feature.

How to do it?

Answer 1

The checkbox in the header has the id which is combined from the "cb_" prefix and the grid id. So you can hide the element with

var myGrid = $("#list");
$("#cb_"+myGrid[0].id).hide();
