URLyBird Search Fields

[Tim Anlauf]

Hello,

I'am working on URLyBird v1.2.1 and not sure how to implement my search
At the moment I have only an AND search.

My sepc says:

It must allow the user to search the data for all records, or for records where the name and/or location fields exactly match values specified by the user.

Do anyone think that an OR search is required here ?

Hi,
And - both, Or - only one (from both).

Regards M.

I provided two textfields.( name and location )

1.
if a user enters a string in both --> all records where name and location matches are returned

2.
enters only name --> all records where name mates are returned

3.
same as 2. only with field location

Is that right or must I have a checkbox ?

Hi Tim,
Think that is the right way to go about it, this is exactly the way I have implmented my search. I think it is another case of a poorly worded specification rather than a requirement to have and / or functionality on the name and location fields. Just make sure to mention exactly how it works in the userguide and choices text files.
