title: Datatables - how to pass search parameter in a url
body: <p>I would like to be able to make a link to a page with a datatable which would pass a search parameter value in the url.  The goal is to have the page with the datatable open pre-filtered with the search value parameter.  </p>
  
  <p>I've set up a jsfiddle to work in with some sample data.<br>
  <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/lbriquet/9CxYT/10/" rel="noreferrer">http://jsfiddle.net/lbriquet/9CxYT/10/</a></p>
  
  <p>The idea would be to add a parameter to the jsfiddle url so that the page would display with the search input value set to "firefox", for example, and the table filtered to show only the search matches.</p>
  
  <p>Any help would be really appreciated!!</p>
