Advanced Search

Post by DonAshby » Mon Dec 10, 2007 11:56 am

Hi,

We enabled the Advanced Search and it looks pretty nice ... we just have to fix some alignment problems.

? is there any way to have the keyword(s) that the customer types into the Search Box just transmit over to the next page - where the Adv Search page is located.... now the customer has to type in the words twice - not so good.

Thanks, Don

Hello Don,

What do you mean?

Hi Mike,
Maybe we are not doing this right ( with our set up ), but we have the Seach box and if you put in the word
wallet
into the box and press GO, it takes you to the Adv Search page and you need to put
wallet
in the Search field again.

Just wondering, Don

Hello Don,

It's been edited in a manner which we didn't intend. There should be a link to the advanced search form, not a form post. It's not being used as intended unless I'm missing something.

Ok - I agree and I understand what you are saying. We will disable it for now and put the simple Search back and then put in a link... I thought something did not seem right about how we did it --- but it did work as it went to the Adv Search when you hit GO.

Thanks, Don

Hello Don,

It would work with a bit of help, I'm guessing. If no results are returned then perhaps the advanced search form should be 'given' out.
