I'm writing an EXTJS app and having to make a JSONP call to do a search query, but it's automatically adding a "callback" parameter to the URL and I haven't found a way to eliminate it. This is causing an "illegal\_argument\_exception" to be thrown because "request [/\_search] contains unrecognized parameter: [callback]"

I DO have the ability to change the parameter name from "callback" to anything, so is there a valid parameter name (like sort, that I could use that would essentially ignore the data that I'm passing in?

Or is there a way to tell Elastic to ignore these invalid parameters all together?

Thanks
