Hi,

I'm use cms v1.36 and I have a problem with multi search on my site.

I download the multiseach.php from the forum and when I try to search I have a problem with one letter only.
My Language is Hebrew and we have 22 letters it's seem to work great but ignore only one letter from the search inbox.
the letter is "נ" (b in English) how can I fix it?

Hi efi-revivo,

So is the problem that when you search you are not getting the expected results?

When I search for "b" I get a result:
http://www.eilatnight.co.il/multiSearch.php?q=b

But this one does not give a result:
http://www.eilatnight.co.il/multiSearch.php?q=%D7%A0

Can you add this option and let me know what the output is:
$searchOptions['debugSql'] = "1";

You didn't change the character set on your database did you? (You would know if you did).

Hi dave,

my character set on database is unicode

this is the output
SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS * FROM (
SELECT 'design' as `tablename`, num, `title` as `_title`, `small` as `_summary`, '' as `field1`, '' as `field2`, '' as `field3`, '' as `field4`, '' as `field5`, '' as `field6`, '' as `field7`, '' as `field8`, '' as `field9`, '' as `field10`, CONCAT_WS('\t', `title`, `content`, `small`, `city`, `adress`) as _content FROM `cms_design`
) as combinedTable
WHERE (`_content` LIKE '%אפי�%')
AND (`_content` LIKE '%ט%')
LIMIT 10 OFFSET 0

Hmm, I'll have to research this more.

Can you send me CMS and FTP login details to dave@interactivetools.com. Note: Email, don't post login details to the forum.

Thanks!

Hi,

Could you please give some background on the kind of problem you're experiencing? If you can attach your .php code and give provide a URL example, that would be helpful.

thanks

Sure,
I can't get the Multi Search code to echo the desired fields:
- Department;
- Phone;
- Fax;
- Email;
- URL;

I am only getting Department & Phone

the code so far looks like this....

<!-- STEP1: Load Record List (Paste this above other steps) -->
<?php
require_once "/home/centra24/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";
$searchOptions = array();
$searchOptions['keywords'] = @$FORM['q'];
$searchOptions['perPage'] = "10";
$searchOptions['debugSql'] = "0";

$searchTables = array();

$searchTables['sv_campus_directory'] = array(
'viewerUrl' => 'multiSearch.php',
'titleField' => 'department',
'summaryField' => 'phone',
'searchFields' => array('department','phone','fax'),
);

list($searchRows, $searchDetails) = searchMultipleTables($searchTables, $searchOptions);
?>
<!-- /STEP1: Load Record List -->

<h1>Search Viewer</h1>

<form method="GET" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" >
<input type="text" name="q" value="<?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$FORM['q']); ?>" size="50">
<input type="submit" name="" value="Search"><br/><br/>

<table border=0 cellpadding=2 cellspacing=0 width=100%>
<tr>
<td bgcolor="#EEEEEE"><font size=2 class="maintext">Search results for <b><?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$FORM['q']); ?></b></font></td>
<td bgcolor="#EEEEEE" align="right"><font size=2 class="maintext">Results
<b><?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$searchDetails['pageResultsStart']); ?></b> to
<b><?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$searchDetails['pageResultsEnd']); ?></b> of
<b><?php echo htmlspecialchars(@$searchDetails['totalRecords']); ?></b>.</font></td>
</tr>
</table><br/>

<!-- show errors -->
<?php if ($searchDetails['invalidPageNum']): ?>
Results page '<?php echo $searchDetails['page']?>' not found, <a href="<?php echo $searchDetails['firstPageLink'] ?>">start over &gt;&gt;</a>.<br/>
<?php elseif ($searchOptions['keywords'] && $searchDetails['noRecordsFound']): ?>
No records matched search query!<br/><br/>
<?php elseif ($searchOptions['keywords'] == ""): ?>
Enter a keyword to search.<br/><br/>
<?php endif ?>

<!-- STEP2: Display Record List -->
<?php foreach ($searchRows as $record): ?>
<strong><?php echo $record['_title'] ?></strong><br/>
<?php if ($record['_summary']): ?>
<?php echo $record['_summary'] ?><br/>
<?php else: ?>
No description available for page.<br/>
<?php endif ?>

<a href="<?php echo $record['_link'] ?>" style="color: #008000"><?php echo $record['fax'] ?></a><br/><br/>

<?php endforeach ?>
<!-- /STEP2: Display Record List -->




<!-- STEP3: Display Page Links (Paste anywhere below "Load Record List") -->
<?php if ($searchDetails['prevPage']): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $searchDetails['prevPageLink'] ?>">&lt;&lt; prev</a>
<?php else: ?>
&lt;&lt; prev
<?php endif ?>

- page <?php echo $searchDetails['page'] ?> of <?php echo $searchDetails['totalPages'] ?> -

<?php if ($searchDetails['nextPage']): ?>
<a href="<?php echo $searchDetails['nextPageLink'] ?>">next &gt;&gt;</a>
<?php else: ?>
next &gt;&gt;
<?php endif ?>
<!-- /STEP3: Display Page Links -->

</form>

And my example is here....

Hi,

The multi search doesn't return all fields from all the tables being searched, so you can't output all of those fields using it.

I do notice in your code that you are only searching 1 table. In that case, you wouldn't want to use multi search as it is only for search multiple tables. You can use a regular getRecords query and then then output any fields you want.

For some searching options, try here:

Hope this helps
