Question

I would like to know that the request was due to the refresh button being clicked or the search’s reset button being clicked. I would like to be able to do a getvar server-side and see something like searchreset=true or refresh=true. I know it will involve manipulating postData. It probably involves listening for click events and overriding them. Any ideas of how to do this?

I’ve came across onReset but somebody said that is triggered after the request is sent.

I am not sure why you want, but the implementation can be about the following:

var $grid = $('#grid');

$('#grid').jqGrid({
    ...
    loadComplete: function () {
        if (typeof this.p.postData.searchreset !== "undefined") {
            delete this.p.postData.searchreset;
        }
    }
});

$grid.jqGrid('navGrid', '#pager',
    {refreshstate: 'current', edit: false, add: false, del: false,
        beforeRefresh: function () {
            $grid[0].p.postData.refresh = true;
        },
        afterRefresh: function () {
            delete $grid[0].p.postData.refresh;
        }
    },
    {}, {}, {}, {onReset: function () {
        $grid[0].p.postData.searchreset = true;
    }});
