How to disable editing for some cells in row editing of JQGrid?

If you use inline editing mode and want to decide dynamically which cells of the row will be editable for example based on the contain of the cells you can do this in the way which I described here. You can do this with another method also:

$(this).jqGrid('setColProp', 'YouColumnName', {editable:false});

So you should just set editable to false or true before calling of editRow method. In the way you can implement any logic which you want.

UPDATE: Free jqGrid allows to define editable as callback function. See the wiki article. It allows to make the column editable in some rows and holding non-editable for other rows.
