Re: Is this possible in simple search? question?

It keeps the original formatting. numero = 17252

texte = >If I understand correctly, this should work:>[SEARCH>db=/DATABASE.db&waCODEdatarq=1002&CODEword=ww&group1field=CODE&wnGROUP1datarq=10>03&GROUP1word=ww]This is a good start, but it will not work, because whenever you use grouped fields, you must use a different group for EACH search parameter that's related to the original db field. You cannot use the original field name in one parameter and the group field name in another parameter.This is what you want instead:[SEARCHdb=/DATABASE.db&group1field=CODE&group2field=CODE&group1word=ww&group2word=ww&wagroup1datarq=1002&wngroup2datarq=1003]In this example you will note that there are no search parameters dealing with the CODE field -- instead, the search parameters all deal with either the group1 field or the group2 field.By the way, I put each parameter on a separate line here to make it easier for you to see what I've done. Just be sure to put this into the proper WebCat format (get rid of the carriage returns) before using this in your template ... :)Sincerely,Ken Grome808-737-6499WebDNA Solutionsmailto:ken@webdna.nethttp://www.webdna.net Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
