Ciao, ho trovato un interessante motore di ricerca (si tratta di una pagina in asp + un database mdb).
L'ho modificato graficamente ma oltre al classico modo di ricerca ci ho anche aggiunto un metodo di ricerca per CATEGORIA. Se si inserisce un termine di ricerca il motore trova i records con quella parola, se si seleziona una categoria il motore trova i records che si trovano in quella categoria.... il problema è che se invece si inserisce sia una parola che una categoria... il motore non trova niente!!!!!
Chi saprebbe darmi una mano??


qui sotto riporto parte del codice colpevole(scusate la lunghezza ma.... non ho nemmeno la più pallida idea di dove si trovi la parte interessata)

Grazie a tutti coloro che hanno perso tempo nel leggere il mio posto e un enorme grazie a chi mi aiuterà
Ciao ciao

sì scusa... ma il problema era che io non sapevo neppure qual'era il punto incriminato ;)
Cmq ora proverò e poi vi farò sapere se ci riesco o meno

ho provato a fare come mi hai detto ma non ci sono riuscito.
Scusa, forse mi sono spiegato bene, oppure non mi sono spiegato per niente
Mettiamo che io voglia cercare il film della carica dei 101 ho tre possibilità di cercarlo
1) inserisco "carica dei 101" e me lo trova
2) faccia la ricerca per categoria, in questo caso "cartoni animati"
3) inserisco "carica dei 101" + seleziono categoria "cartoni animati"
Io vorrei riuscire a fare proprio questa terza possibilità.

Premetto che nel db ogni record è inserito nella stessa tabella e contiene oltre al titolo una descrizione e la categoria di appartenenza

Cmq scusatemi ancora, forse sono un po' presuntuoso... ma non so chi altro mi potrebbe aiutare

e dai! possibile che nessuno lo sa!?
