I would like to be able to use search results in the content of the search results page. For example, if a search was for:
search.php?age_min=30&age_max=40&hair_color=Brown&eye_color=Blue
then I would be able to use $age_min, $age_max, $hair_color and $eye_color in the next page.
Is that possible?
Many thanks.

Hi,
Yes, you can access variables in the URL query string like this.
$_REQUEST['variable'];
Where 'variable' is the name in the query string. So the code:
$age_min=$_REQUEST['age_min'];
will take the 'age_min' variable from the query string (in this case 30) and assign it to the variable $age_min.
Hope this helps.
