Currently I load the data from a mysql database with datatype: 'xml'.  How do I act upon the data locally?  The examples I've seen mention this change:  datatype: 'clientSide'

But I still need to load the data from the server.  I figure I have to:

1) get the data from the mysql database.

2) load it into a local array?

3) draw a grid using the local array?

4) sort as needed.

Thanks!
