Hello,

Once again I need some help here, Is there a way to make sb=1 default in every search, some change inside db.cgi?

And, When searching with keyword, dbman check in the field type is date, if so, it ignores. Is it possible to make dbman ignore a certain field, like field 16??

Thanks in adv.

1) All you have to do is add a hidden field to your search form codes, like the following:


2) The sub query routine would have to be dramatically hacked...at this time, there is no clean method of ignoring fields when searching using keywords.

Thanks for the reply, about the hidden field, that what I am using, but I was thinking of something like a global variable, like that I wouldnt have to change all my pages, and the parameter &sb=1 wouldnt be on the Url

I had an ideia, maybe you can help. There are 5 occurencies of $in{'sb'} inside the query sub.

I created a global variable $sb = 1; and replaced the 5 $in{'sb'} to $sb. It didnt work, I think the problem is the syntax.

Elliot, can you help me on this one??

What you have will not work.


Why do you want to change the sub query? And if you are sorting by the same field, why do you need to change the hidden codes that I gave you.

It will take you less time to add the hidden field and also add the argument to your List All query string, then to re-code the sub query. And to re-code the sub query to always sort by field 1, you will lose flexibility in using other fields to sortby in the future.
