Search website using dropdown menu's
Permalink
Hi there,
I have a website where we have information on various products. What the client would like to do is:
As well as someone entering anything they like in the search field, he would like to have up to three dropdown menu's each having "search" words as options. The customer could then click on "Dropdown1" and choose one of the options (eg: shampoo). They could then click on the submit button and hey presto, they get all results associated with "Shampoo" (this just saved them actually typing shampoo). Or they could choose "shampoo" from dropdown one, and "organic" from dropdown two, and this time only result are shown with "shampoo" and "organic". etc etc
On a separate note: It would be nice if you could have the dropdowns built dynamically, so that dropdown one influences what options are available in dropdown two etc but for this project, I don't think its a necessity. Not sure how this would be done though, tags perhaps?
If anyone could point out how this may be done that would be great
