JqGrid Hide/Show columns

I have an MVC project, and am working on a page using JQGrid. I have a flyout menu with lots of checkboxes (one for each column of the grid), and I am trying to attach a script to hide/show a column on click.

I've read lots of solutions, and tried using the hide/show methods from the wiki.

$("ShippingListGrid").hideCol("Open");

"Open" is the name of the column in the colModel

{ name: 'Open', index: 'Open', width: 120, align: 'left', editable: true,sortable: true,hidden: false,Key: false, edittype: 'text', editoptions: { size: 20, maxlength: 30}},

This doesn't seem to work though, when I call the function my grid does not change. I've tried reloading my grid and using the column id instead of the name, and the columns still don't change. I've got the latest download. Does anyone know why the function might not be working?

Check your selector, if your grid is a table ID, you will need the # symbol. Maybe try: $("#ShippingListGrid").hideCol("Open");
