Grid paging within a form

I am trying to add paging to a grid which is already within a form container.

How do I define the additional paging container on the form? I cannot change the parent html and want to define the paging container through the form structure data

I tried the following which generates an error this.cont is null:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8" />
<title>test paging</title>
<?php include "../util/head.html";?>
</head>
<body>
<script>
process();

function process()
{
	dhxLayout = new dhtmlXLayoutObject("parentId", "1C");
	dhxLayoutMain = dhxLayout.cells("a");
	dhxLayoutMain.hideHeader();

	dhxFormMain = dhxLayoutMain.attachForm();
	var formMain =
		'<items>' +
		'<item type="settings" labelWidth="120" labelAlign="left"/>' +
		'<item type="block" width="200" offsetTop="50" offsetLeft="20">' +
		'<item type="newcolumn"/>' +
		'<item type="label" name="search_label" label="search" labelWidth="200"/>' +
		'<item type="newcolumn"/>' +
		'<item type="input" name="search" label="" inputWidth="100" />' +
		'</item>' +
		'<item type="block" width="600" offsetTop="50" offsetLeft="20">' +
		'<item type="newcolumn"/>' +
		'<item type="radio" name="set" value="all" label="Show all" position="label-right" labelWidth="100" checked="true"/>' +
		'<item type="newcolumn"/>' +
		'<item type="radio" name="set" value="selected" label="Show selected" position="label-right" labelWidth="100" disabled="true" />' +
		'<item type="newcolumn"/>' +
		'<item type="input" name="count" label="count" value="0" labelWidth="50" inputWidth="31" readonly="true"/>' +
		'</item>' +
		'<item type="container" name="container" label="" inputWidth="550" inputHeight="560" offsetLeft="50" />'+
		'<item type="container" name="container2" label="" inputWidth="550" inputHeight="560" offsetLeft="50" />'+
		'<item type="newcolumn" />' + 
		'<item type="label" name="attribute_label" label="Select Attributes" offsetTop="50" offsetLeft="50" labelWidth="200" />' +
		'<item type="checkbox" name="check1" label="Check 1" position="label-right" labelWidth="350" offsetTop="50" offsetLeft="50" />' +
		'<item type="checkbox" name="check2" label="Check 2" position="label-right" labelWidth="350" offsetLeft="50" />' +
		'<item type="checkbox" name="check3" label="Check 3" position="label-right" labelWidth="350" offsetLeft="50" />' +
		'</items>';

	dhxFormMain.loadStructString(formMain);

	dhxContainerPlate = dhxFormMain.getContainer("container");
	dhxGrid = new dhtmlXGridObject(dhxContainerPlate);
	dhxGrid.setSkin("dhx_skyblue");
	setGridImagePath(dhxGrid); 
	dhxGrid.setHeader("Name,Company,Project,Date,key,Equipment");
	dhxGrid.setInitWidths("100,222,112,110,50,100");
	dhxGrid.setColAlign("left,left,left,center,left,left");
	dhxGrid.setColTypes("ro,ro,ro,ro,ro,coro");
	dhxGrid.setColSorting("str,str,str,str,int,str");
	dhxGrid.enableTooltips("false,false,false,false,false,false");
	dhxGrid.hasFilterHeader = false;
	dhxGrid.init();
	dhxGrid.enablePaging(true,20,5,"container2",true);
	dhxGrid.setPagingSkin("toolbar", "dhx_skyblue");

	var json = ajaxGetSync("../server/getData.php", {});
	dhxGrid.parse(json, "json");
