Re: jquery datagrids

Generically:

Grab the javascript file and download it into public/javascripts

Include the javascript in whatever view needs it

app/views/things/griddy_view_of_thing.rhtml:

<%= javascript_include_tag "jqGrid.js" %>

Then use the Grid is in your view,  that will vary of course.

That said, jqGrid sort of goes around RoR Active Record,  so there's alot more to installing jqGrid,  there are some other plugins (that appear to overlap activerecord) required.   I think this is more of a 'integrate and make co-exist' project than a simple 'install and use' project.
