Re: re: Question on forms...



Actually I had before just search1 and have done the Header Srch 
both with and without quotes.  But I did it agian and it worked 
obviously I missed something, thanks for that information.. I bet I 
had done search1 in one area, and Search1 in the other.

I still have the problem with the basket and I also have next to the 
search form a drop down menu, and I think the two problems are 
related.

I have for example this in the header in a seperate <form> 
designator.

<input type="hidden" name="mv_click" value="Search2">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="mv_doit"  VALUE="search">
<select name="mv_searchspec" size="1" 
onChange="document.forms[0].action='[process-
target]',document.forms[0].submit()">
<option value="choose">Choose</option>
<option value="animal">Animals</option>
<option value="decorative">Decorative</option>
.... etc..

When this one exectues if I have not entered text in the search box and 
done a search I get a bad search 

"Search strings must be at least 1 characters. You had '' as one of your 
search strings. "
If I do a search with the other form first, hit the back button and then 
choose an item from the list it will just execute a search based on that 
previous search text box.  As if mv_searchspec is not being reset.  Again 
I am sorry for being so dense here, at sometimes it seemed right in my 
grasp and others it doesn't.  This same thing happens in the basket, if I 
am in the basket and do a search by the text box, then hit the back 
button then click on add this accessory it executes the same search 
again.  Even tho these are in differnt <form> blocks.
