I am working on jqGrid. I am new to it. I am using data type as 'local'. whenever I used to execute the line jQuery("#list2").jqGrid({...}), I get an error as 'TypeError: undefined is not a function' No other information i am getting with this. The code is as below:

Where am going wrong? also, Which datatype should I use local or json and why? I didn't find better and easy to understand description anywhere.
