Hello All,
I am trying to make a Search page which uses List boxes.
And i want the items in the list box to show up from a database field.
And when user select a particular item from the list..show all matching records.
When clicked a particular record show its details.
Can anyone help me guide to the right source.
Are there any source codes or applications available to make this work.

Thanks in advance...
Nissan

Hello DNG,
couple of questions.
Now that we have list of records getting displayed based on selection from the list box.
How do you select a specific record from the search results and show it in detail.
I know we can use hyperlinks to make the search results active but do we use query strings to move the field values from search_results.asp to say search_specific.asp

Also wanted to know can the list box section have muliple values.
For example if anyone wants to search by product category and product price.
How does that work. if I have 100 items in price range of $50 to $1000 and if I want to show in my list box select price range; $50 - $100, $100 - 500, 500 and above.

Please advice....

Thank a million in advance

Wait a minute.... I thought in 1973 Nissan was known as Datsun ???
 
is Nissan a Japanese Make?? I drive Mitsubishi Eclipse :)

My Nissan was imported from Japan by my dad back in 1973.
Its actually a Nissan Datsun..which got merged in late 80s to become Nissan Motors.
Good car but lot of maintenance and parts are rare.
Have to find them on Ebay.

And Eclipse is same as Eagle Talon (which is not there anymore).
So is Dodge Stealth and Mitsubishi 3000GT. Great cars but no it production anymore..

I will open a new thread right now.
Didnt check this earlier as I was having some network isssues.

thanks
