Question

Is it possible to display two editable text boxes in one cell of the JqGrid

Answer 1

Sorry, but the description of the problem in the comment to your question still don’t contain any examples which shows why you have to display two text boxes in one cell. Moreover you still not answered on the question: which editing mode you use?

The problem is the following: if you use some software product you can use a lot of its standard features. In the case the implementation will be short and you can make very nice solution writing very small code. If you one the other side would try just follow your original imagination of how all should looks like you can spend many time and to write a lot of code. As the result from the point of view of the user who will work with your site all will be almost the same as in the simple solution. Is it really required?

If you would use form editing for example you can easy display additional textboxes, checkboxes or textareas from hidden columns. jqGrid automatically create controls for all hidden columns which have editable: true property. So what you need to do in the case is just to show hidden field in the form with respect of $.show (like in the answer).
