title: How to implement search on jqgrid?
body: <p>So I've got basic example of jqgrid working in ASP.NET MVC, the javascript looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    $(document).ready(function() {
  
          $("#list").jqGrid({
              url: '../../Home/Example',
              datatype: 'json',
              myType: 'GET',
              colNames: ['Id', 'Action', 'Parameters'],
              colModel: [
                     { name: 'id', index: 'id', width: 55, resizable: true },
                     { name: 'action', index: 'action', width: 90, resizable: true },
                     { name: 'paramters', index: 'parameters', width: 120, resizable: true}],
              pager: $('#pager'),
              rowNum: 10,
              rowList: [10, 20, 30],
              sortname: 'id',
              sortorder: 'desc',
              viewrecords: true,
              multikey: "ctrlKey",
              imgpath: '../../themes/basic/images',
              caption: 'Messages'
          });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Now I am trying to implement the search button that they have in the <a href="http://www.trirand.com/jqgrid/jqgrid.html" rel="noreferrer">jqgrid examples</a> (click on Manipulating/Grid Data). But I don't see how they implement it. I'm expecting e.g. a "search:true" and a method to implement it. </p>
  
  <p>Has anyone implemented search on jqgrid or know of examples that show explicitly how to do it?</p>
