Problem searching checkboxes
I'm having problems searching my db with multiple checkboxes selected. I have one topic in my db, which uses multiple checkboxes. If i search my db with many checkboxes selected, i get incorrect results (no matches). I remember seeing some postings on this issue before, but i couldn't find them in the archives anymore. Can anyone help on this one?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

This is currently a limitation of DBMan in that it does not do keyword searches, only phrases. So if you are searching for 'foo bar', it will only match the phrase 'foo bar' together, not if they appear separated.

Similairily, if you check off foo and bar, it will only match if the result has both foo and bar checked off and that they appear in the same order (not likely).

I hope to fix this in a future version, but it is still a ways off.

Cheers,

Alex

Okey, thanks anyway for a great script. I'll have to work that thing around in some other way.
