I've searched through the documentation and online but can't seem to find a definitive answer —

Is there a way to get the search parameters and do a search through javascript on the clientside, without sending the search to the server to be processed?

The use isbasically for a drag and drop sort, but using a jqgrid as the master list

Fixed set of 100-200 items in a jqgrid

User would use the search toolbar to filter these items, then be able to add the results to a bucket

If i could get the search params, i could do a search on the clientside and uss css to hide/unhide rows — i know i could just use the existing ajax search, but it seems it would be faster/more efficient to do filtering like this without having to send data back and forth to the server
