Your answer allows for different search critera but does not accommodate having *no* search. -Chris -----Original Message----- From: WebDna @ [mailto:webdna@inkblotmedia.com] Sent: Monday, September 15, 2003 10:07 AM To: WebDNA-Talk@talk.smithmicro.com Subject: Re: hideif/showif causes error if wrapped around searches This does not solve having to maintain multiple search context and will have repetative code. That is why in my example I used a formvariables loop to feed it search criteria and a showif/hideif style to show the sort features. By adding the sortdir and sorttype to th shownext links you will not lose your sort. Alternately you could use the variable approach to search [text]string=search criteria[/text] [search [string]] This would allow you to pass any value you want to the search including Database. This in conjuntion with either a cookie or the cart can allow you to remember searchs and what page they were on etc. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Chris List Recipient"
