I did something like this in an old PHP app - what I did was stash the filter parameters (actually, the whole query string) in the session and then add them back to the URL when linking / redirecting back to the index page. So a link that would normally go to '/some_models' instead was to '/some_models?search_param1=xxx&search_param2=xxx'. Probably not the most glamorous solution, but it did the job. --Matt Jones -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hobo Users" group.
