Hey All,

I am unfortunately following up on a job and trying to debug some advanced
search code which doesn't seem to be working.  Very frustrating!!!

Just wondering if anyone could share some advanced search code, ie. a form
and action pages which could search through product names, description,
price ranges, product categories, etc.

The code which I am working with is as follows, when entering in price
ranges it outputs nothing, but entering a description only works fine. 
The database is postgres, price, description and name fields are varchar
and fksubcatercory field is int4:

<cfquery name="results" datasource="#request.ds#">
        select *
        from products p, subcategories sc, categories c
        WHERE p.fksubcategoryid = sc.subcategoryid
        AND sc.fkcategoryid = c.categoryid

                <!--- search through subcategories --->
                <cfif isdefined("FORM.subcategory") and (FORM.subcategory gt 0)>
                        and p.fksubcategoryid = #FORM.subcategory#
                </cfif>
                
                <!--- search for from price range --->
                <cfif form.fromprice is not "">
                        and p.price >= '#FORM.fromprice#'
                </cfif>
                
                <!--- search for to price range --->
                <cfif form.toprice is not "">
                        and p.price <= '#FORM.toprice#'
                </cfif>
        
                <!--- search through various columns / tables for description --->
                <cfif isdefined("FORM.description")>
                        AND p.productname ~* '#FORM.description#'
                        OR p.description ~* '#FORM.description#'
                </cfif>
        order by p.productname
        </cfquery>

Help would be greatly appreciated, some better code to start over with may
be better.

Thanks.
