jqgrid not passing record id for edit delete

Question

I am trying to use the edit delete functions in jqgrid.

I can't seem to get it to pass the record id to my processing page the edit is sending all values, but the delete only sends the jqgridrow id (id=jqg16). Obviously I need the record id so I know which record to delete! The record id column is id_mdt; my column that holds the record id is set up as follows:

myGrid = jQuery("#rowed2").jqGrid({ 
    url:'data/stokistdata_s_json.php?q=3', 
    datatype: "json",
    mtype: "POST", 
    rowNum:10, 
    rowList:[50,100,150,200,300,400,500,600], 
    pager: '#prowed2', 
    sortname: 'name_mdt', 
    viewrecords: true, 
    gridview:true,
    sortorder: "asc", 
    rowNum:50, 
    scroll: true, 
    editurl: "data/server.php", 
    caption:"Stockist's and Orchid days",
    colNames:[
        'Actions',
        'id', //record id column

try adding key: true in your colModel for the id field.
