I am trying for the longest while to figure out how to get a Multiple Product Search. Where I can search for different items at the same time and put it in one result field.

For example a customer wants to look for a specific jeans, t-shirt and shoe. He would just have to enter the three items in the search field and they all appear in the results page.

Could someone assist me?

Not sure if this is what you need but:

Not Really.... In the search field itself. A customer can put in more than one item numbers and they would show the result on one page. for example

Items you are searching for
Bicycle ---- 0156987T
Painting ---- 8756324H
Socks ---- 4759871m

A customer goes to the search field and enters all three of those numbers and they all appear in a search result Page

You could modify the search.php to search for the extra fields param00-09 and add those fields to the current search form.

Is it possible to do a search.php?substring=Item#&substring=Item#2?

I tried that but its only showing the result for the last item number. How can I get it to show results for both item numbers

you would need to edit search.php to acept the extra search params

I am not to familiar with programming. This is what is my search code;

$ss = split(" ",$substring); 
foreach($ss as $s) 
// nfc - we add support for other fields to search 
$con[] = "(".$sql_tbl[products].".product like '%".$s."%'"." OR ". 
$sql_tbl[products].".productcode like '%".$s."%'"." OR ". 
$sql_tbl[products].".param00 like '%".$s."%'"." OR ". 
$sql_tbl[products].".param01 like '%".$s."%'"." OR ". 
$sql_tbl[products].".param02 like '%".$s."%'"." OR ". 
$sql_tbl[products].".descr like '%".$s."%'"." OR ". 
$sql_tbl[products].".fulldescr like '%".$s."%'"." OR ". 
$sql_tbl[products].".productid like '%".$s."%'".")"; 
//$substr .= "&substring=".urlencode($substring); 
} 

Nothing is happening .... I tried searching for two different items and nothing.
