I have tried to figure out how to disable the header for a jqGrid, so that the row containing the column names does not show. So far, I have come up with no solution. Is there any way to do this?

I don't see that the plugin gives you any options for this, but you could simply find and hide the container for the header.
...set up grid...
$('.ui-jqgrid-hdiv').hide();

Omitting the 'caption' property hides the header.
Very late I know, but for someone still wanting to know. This was found after looking through the source.

1Like this much better than abusing JavaScript – afreeland Sep 11 '12 at 19:13

1This answer is wrong. The question was not about hiding the caption but how to hide the column's names. The accepted answer is the correct. – Pavlos Papanikolaou Jun 24 '15 at 14:12

@PavlosPapanikolaou I agree with your comment. After testing it on jsFiddle it no longer works. Not too sure now whether I misunderstood the question in the first instance or whether there was a bug that had been fixed since. – Pieter Jul 08 '15 at 16:42

This works:
var grid = $("#GRID_NAME");
var gview = grid.parents("div.ui-jqgrid-view");
gview.children("div.ui-jqgrid-hdiv").hide();

Not sure why no-one has come up with the CSS solution yet...
.ui-jqgrid-hdiv {
display:none !important;
}
You can scope it using a wrapper container for a single instance if you have other grids that shouldn't be affected.

This code works for me for jqGrid version 5.7
var tableId = document.getElementById('gridTablId').getAttribute("aria-labelledby");
document.querySelector("#" + tableId + " .ui-jqgrid-htable thead").style.display = "none";

There is an option for this: hidegrid: false
look at following Is it possible to remove the expand/collapse button from the jqGrid header?

This does not solve my problem. According to the jqGrid documentation, the hidegrid option "Enables or disables the show/hide grid button, which appears on the right side of the Caption layer. Takes effect only if the caption property is not an empty string." – Tore Jul 14 '11 at 08:44
