Hello all,
i would like to know if it's possible to hide the query in the search field when you click on a merchant name in the merchant index (merchant:MerchantName)
Thanks for your help
Yes it works like a charm :)
Thank you David for your efficient support !
Hi,
You have to be a bit careful about how you do this; because the value of the query ($q) is used in various places - in particular for constructing the Next and Previous links at the bottom of the search results.
The search field, as displayed by includes/searchform.php defaults to the value of $q.
Firstly, if you never wanted to display the current search you could just remove the default value; like this:
includes/searchform.php
<div class='searchform'><form name='search' action='<?php print $config_baseHREF ?>search.php'>
<input type='text' name='q' size='35' />
<input type='submit' value='<?php print translate("Search"); ?>' />
</form>
</div>
Now, if you only wanted to make it empty when the search was a merchant:MerchantName, you would have to do something like this:
includes/searchform.php
<?phpif ($parts[0] == "merchant")
{
$searchform_default = "":
}
else
{
$searchform_default = $q;
}
?>
<div class='searchform'>
<form name='search' action='<?php print $config_baseHREF ?>search.php'>
<input type='text' name='q' size='35' value='<?php print $searchform_default; ?>' />
<input type='submit' value='<?php print translate("Search"); ?>' />
</form>
</div>
Hope this helps!
Cheers,
David.
