Display search and results on another site

Submitted by jonny5 on Tue, 2008-02-26 14:03 in

is it possible to display the search form on another site that has no pricetapestry installation and the search then calls the main tapestry database then the database sends back the results that would then be displayed.

i can do this with an iframe but can it be done with a simply piece of PHP??/

Hello Jonny,

There wouldn't be a simple piece of PHP that could do this i'm afraid. There are various ways it could be done, for example directly within the page using AJAX; or a script that makes a remote query. Either way; in addition to the code on the remove server additional code to perform the query and return the results would be required on your Price Tapestry site. I'll have a look into the options for you... In the mean time, an IFRAME solution is probably the quickest to implement...

Cheers,
David.

Hi Mally,

Not as yet i'm afraid as it would need a fair bit of AJAX coding from the ground up to implement without using frames...

Cheers,
