Answer 1

The usage of the custom formatter is one of the possibilities. One can also use unobtrusive style of onclick binding

First one defines

var grid = $("#list"),
    getColumnIndexByName = function(columnName) {
        var cm = grid.jqGrid('getGridParam','colModel'),i=0,l=cm.length;
        for (; i

Then one can use the in the loadComplete the code like

loadComplete: function() {
    var i=getColumnIndexByName('closed');
    // nth-child need 1-based index so we use (i+1) below
    $("tbody > tr.jqgrow > td:nth-child("+(i+1)+") > input",
      this).click(function(e) {
        disableIfChecked(this);
    }).each(function(e) {
        disableIfChecked(this);
    });
}
