How can I get JQGrid to recognize server sent Errors?

Use the callbacks. If you get an actual http error (a 400 or 500, for example), loadError(xhr, status, error) is triggered.

But some errors (like validation) shouldn't throw a 400 or 500 error. But you can still catch those in loadComplete(xhr). Parse your json, and check for whatever way you're using to identify errors. For example, I'm doing this in my loadComplete():

if (jsonResponse.errors) { $.each(jsonResponse.errors, function(i, val){ addErrorMessage($("#"+val.field), val.message); }); }
