How to add a custom button to a jqGrid row that does NOT select the row when clicked

This example from Oleg is very close to the behavior I'm looking for (the first button) but I want preserve whether or not it was highlighted if possible, and don't want to highlight a row and check on the check box if it was un-selected. Just to clarify, I will be popping a modal dialog if they click this button, it has nothing to do with editing the row.

Thank you, Stephen

To prevent highlighting of the row in which the custom button will be clicked one need just include return false; inside of click event handler:

click: function(e) {
    alert("'Custom' button is clicked in the rowis="+
        $(e.target).closest("tr.jqgrow").attr("id") +" !");
    return false; // !!!!!
}

The demo demonstrate the results. It's the updated version of the demo from the answer and the previous one which you referenced in your question. Additionally I updated the code of myDelOptions.onclickSubmit based on the code from the answer.
