Hey!
I wanted to add new data into search pages. I will start a new table- called "Name" I want the data from the fields of Name- "Name", "Birth" "Death" and a few other fields to be returned when I search.
I can edit search.cgi to do this I guess, but I figured I could also do this from a global. There would be a switch in the searcghh url (se=1) and if that was set, I would want to check for info in Name, and return it.
So the global would have to take the query term, and search Name for term, and return all the fields as "Name=xxxxxx", "Birth=xxxxxx" "Death=xxxx"
Is this the right way to do this... and how would I return more than one field in globals? Is that called a "Hash"???
