Hi all, I am just wandering whether there is any way round being able to search two categories at once ? I have a search form in which I am trying to search category id 69 and 66 together, but it does not work. I just need to know whether.. A - It is possible ? and B - If so, how would I implement it? This is what I have so far that does not work with both type=69&type66 obviously it works fine with just one or the other, but I could do with it searching both really if poss.. holiday-homes-in-wales.php?searchtext=&type=69&type66&Submit=Search Cheers Jason
Well, of course ANYTHING is possible! First I assume the url that you're showing is missing the "/searchresults.php" part before the "?", right? holiday-homes-in-wales.php/searchresults.php?searchtext=&type=69&type66&Submit=Search It sounds to me like the issue is in your form. If you want to have more than one value for a given variable (in this case the variable is 'type'), then you need to have a form element that accepts more than one variable such as a checkbox. You may find this php manual page helpful too: http://php.net/manual/en/faq.html.php
Hi Mike, Thanks for the reply. Your first assumption is correct - my mistake Sorry I am not clear in what you mean with this... then you need to have a form element that accepts more than one variable such as a checkbox.
Form elements are the html elements within the form. <form name='myform' ... > <!-- these are you form elements --> <input type="text" name="search text" /> ... </form> You said in the original post that you have "search form"? How is the user entering the categories into the form? Look at your form and then again refer to my previous post, especially the php.net reference.
