Hello

Bmxer gives codes in the following thread :
http://www.gossamer-threads.com/perl/forum/showflat.pl?Cat=&Board=L2Cust&Number=41660&page=&view=&sb=&vc=1

It was exactly what that I want,
because the default operator with search is 'AND',
but it will be so cool if there is no result with AND, that there is an automatically search with 'OR'

Bmxer said :

Put it like this instead, in search.cgi where you find
# Word is too common, don't try and sort it, can cause problems.
if (($numhits > 50) and (($grand_total * 0.75) < $numhits)) {
return "Search term is too common.";


put something like this under it
$string = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};
$string=~ s/\&bool=\d+//;
if ($numhits == 0) {
if ($in{'bool'} eq 'and') {
print "Location: http://www.yoursearchurlhere/cgi-bin/search.cgi?$string&bool=or\n\n" ;
}
}


SO i've made the following modification in search.cgi file :

# Word is too common, don't try and sort it, can cause problems.
if (($numhits > 50) and (($grand_total * 0.75) < $numhits)) {
return "Search term is too common.";
$string = $ENV{'QUERY_STRING'};
$string=~ s/\&bool=\d+//;
if ($numhits == 0) {
if ($in{'bool'} eq 'and') {
print "http://www.mydomain.com/cgi-bin/links/cgi-bin/search.cgi?$string&bool=or\n\n" ;
}
}
}


But it seems do not work...

Thanks for your help
Ciao

Disregard my previous post-----the one that Bmxer posted should work.
