In ExtJS, how do I make store.load(config) send parameters not limited to the predefined?

Question

I'm performing a remote filter to a store.

I code something like this:

myStore.load({
    limit: 8,
    foo: 'foo is never sent',
    filters:[{'property':'some property','value':30,'comparison':'lt','field':'age'}]
});

It ends up sending to the server using GET method, with parameters below: (from chrome/firebug)

_dc:1327757119914
page:1
start:0
limit:8
filter:[{"property":"some property","value":30}]

requested URL:

myServerPage.php?_dc=1327757119914&page=1&start=0&limit=8&filter=%5B%7B%22property%22%3A%22some%20property%22%2C%22value%22%3A30%7D%5D

the 'foo' is missing, and more importantly, in the passing 'filter' object, only 'property' and 'value' was sent. (I think these two are predefined, filter config does not accept other keys and values)

How can I send my own parameters to the server using load(), especially in the 'filters' part?

Answer 1

another way:

myStore.getProxy().extraParams= {search: "something"}

Answer 2

myStore.load({
  params: {
    foo: 'foo'
  }
})
