title: How to open Edit like form using custom data in jqGrid?
body: <p>I'm using jqGrid on lot of pages, but on some pages, which are not using jqgrid I want to show Edit like form to maintain look and feel consistency. </p>
  
  <p>This <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5629762/how-to-open-search-find-dialog-in-jqgrid-from-an-external-button">thread</a> talks about something similar but those pages have jqgrid table.</p>
  
  <p>Basically, I'm wondering if its possible to open jqGrid add/edit/view form (without defining full table) using my custom row data? Additionally, since these forms are on new pages, I want to show them as a regular form, not in modal.</p>
  
  <p><strong>Edit:</strong></p>
  
  <p>One possibility I see : I can create a dummy table and hide it and generate form but this would open form in a modal, I guess. Last option could be applying jqGrid css to my forms.</p>
