jqgrid using local data only displays one row - php

Question

I'm having trouble with a search results page. The search page has 16 inputs and the results page uses a dynamic query to fetch the results and input them into an array which is used (with json_encode) to populate a jqgrid with the results. However, the grid is only displaying the first record. I've added a php "echo
json_encode()..." script to the page to view the json formatted results and it's showing all the records in the search results, so I don't know why the grid is only displaying the first row. I'd appreciate any help I can get on this. Here is the script for the grid (I'm not including the dynamic query or the array scripts because they're working fine):
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#slist").jqGrid({
data: "srchres",
datatype: "local",
mtype: "GET",
colNames: ['ProjectID', 'Customer Name', 'Invoice Number', 'Vehicle Info.', 'Project Date'],
colModel: [
{name:'ProjectID', index:'ProjectID', align:'right', hidden:true, editable:false},
{name:'CustomerName', index:'CustomerName', editable:false, width:175, align:'center'},
{name:'InvoiceNumber', index:'InvoiceNumber', editable:false, width:175, align:'center'},
{name:'VehicleInfo', index:'VehicleInfo', width:350, align:'left', editable:false},
{name:'ProjectDate', index:'ProjectDate', editable:false, width:125, align:'center', formatter: 'date', formatoptions: { newformat: 'm/d/Y' }},
],
jsonReader: {repeatitems: false, id: "ProjectID"},
onSelectRow: function (rowid) {
var rowData = $(this).getRowData(rowid);
document.location.href = "../manageproject.php?pid=" + rowData['ProjectID'];
},
pager: "#spager",
loadonce: true,
rowNum: 20,
rowList: [],
width: "auto",
height: "auto",
caption: "",
sortname: "",
sortorder: "",
viewrecords: true,
gridview: true
});
var srchres = <?php echo json_encode($projects_array); ?>;
for(var i=0;i<srchres.length;i++)
jQuery("#slist").addRowData(srchres[i].id,srchres[i]);
});

Answer 1

Try with the following settings into the grid:
$(document).ready(function () {
var srchres = <?php echo json_encode($projects_array); ?>;
$("#slist").jqGrid({
data: srchres,
datatype: "local",
....
});
...
});
Note the variable srchres and how is defined into the grid options. addRowData is not needed to be used.
