Re: Improved Search Function
I'm looking for something similar to longhorn180, but hopefully a bit simpler. I'm looking to do a couple drop-down lists to choose items based upon their extra fields.
Example: extra field [country of origin] has only 5 entries, extra field [style] has only 5 entries and extra field [fabric type] has only 5 entries. You can have a t-shirt [style] from France [country of origin] that's made of Cotton [fabric type]. A series of drop down lists populated from extra fields would allow the customer to quickly select any combination among the general categories. Perhaps the customer wants to look at all cotton shirts, or all of the site's French-made clothes, or all 100% cotton items - drop down just one list and leave the others as is.
It would eliminate any text errors by the customer, which seems to be longhorn180's issue.
Is this idea possible with the standard search? I've played with coding before, but don't know anything about PHP and I'm just learning X-Cart! Any help is appreciated!
