Hi all,
searching with links SQL really pissed me off. It took me 3 days of debugging, following the code and understanding what it does. Mainly because DBSQL.pm and Search.pm where written by different programmers using different styles.
The changes to be made are not very complicated and just some lines of code to be modified.
You can download the modification at:
http://www.silberling.com/lsql/index.htm#download
It fixes following problems:
1. filters can be used
2. substring finds all substring matches
3. and / or searches work (including substring / whole word)
I hope this will make an end to all the discussions about Links SQL not searching properly.
regards, alexander
