Fantastic Snippet! This is simply brilliant. Have a few ideas though:

Do you think it’d be possible to throw in something like Google Suggest functionality or maybe highlighting like in this thread: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,2762.0.html

Great work.

I will definatly give a look at adding the link highlighting. Marcs work looks great on that so I bet it wouldn’t be to hard to integrate it. The tv searching, that sounds a little more complicated. I will not be able to get to this for a while though, I am taking a much needed vacation, and will be away from the computer next week

But when I get back I will definatly look into these two things.

Ah, that’s too bad.
I would love to see this search snippet to have 1 more parameter to search from specific template. I might the only one who need this feature maybe, but if you could add it to the snippet, it will saves me ton of time.

Thanks

The template addition would not be much more than an extra AND to the WHERE clause for Templates, no?

TVs are a different beast however...

Wendy,
I’m not sure I understand what you mean by this. Do you want the search to only search documents that have a certain template assigned to them? I don’t think that would be to hard to add, if thats what you want.

Jaredc - If you see this, I saw in one of your posts from a while back that there were some features that you want to add and work you were going to do on this. Since this is your code and I have just modified it, I was wondering if you had been working on this at all, and some of what I am doing has already been done by you? I don’t want to re-invent the wheel

IE fieldset bug

After reading through the whole snippet and a little looking through google I came across this site. http://www.bubblessoc.net/index.php?p=182. It suggests wrapping the fieldset in an arbitrary div.

It seems to work rather well and fixes the bug for me to make it strict compliant.

I changed this

// establish form
if (($validSearch && ($showSearchWithResults)) || $showSearchWithResults){
  $SearchForm .= '<form '.$searchFormId.' class="FSF_form" action="'.$searchAction.'" method="post">';
  $SearchForm .= ($xhtmlStrict)? '<fieldset><legend>Search</legend>' : '' ;
  // decide what goes in search box
  $searchBoxVal = ($searchString == '' && $boxText != '')? $boxText : $searchString ;
  $SearchForm .= '<input class="FSF_input" type="text" name="search" id="search" value="'.$searchBoxVal.'"  ';
  $SearchForm .= ($boxText)? 'onfocus="this.value=(this.value==\''.$boxText.'\')? \'\' : this.value ;" />' : '/>';
  $SearchForm .= '<input class="FSF_submit" type="submit" name="sub" id="sub" value="'.$searchButtonText.'" />';
  $SearchForm .= ($xhtmlStrict)? '</fieldset>' : '';
  $SearchForm .= '</form>'.$newline;
}

To this

// establish form
if (($validSearch && ($showSearchWithResults)) || $showSearchWithResults){
  $SearchForm .= '<form '.$searchFormId.' class="FSF_form" action="'.$searchAction.'" method="post">';
  $SearchForm .= ($xhtmlStrict)? '<div class="arbitrary"><fieldset><legend>Search</legend>' : '' ;
  // decide what goes in search box
  $searchBoxVal = ($searchString == '' && $boxText != '')? $boxText : $searchString ;
  $SearchForm .= '<input class="FSF_input" type="text" name="search" id="search" value="'.$searchBoxVal.'"  ';
  $SearchForm .= ($boxText)? 'onfocus="this.value=(this.value==\''.$boxText.'\')? \'\' : this.value ;" />' : '/>';
  $SearchForm .= '<input class="FSF_submit" type="submit" name="sub" id="sub" value="'.$searchButtonText.'" />';
  $SearchForm .= ($xhtmlStrict)? '</fieldset></div>' : '';
  $SearchForm .= '</form>'.$newline;
}

In the code:

function connectForAjax() {
    $database = '';
    $tblPrefix = '';
    $dbuser = '';
    $dbpass = '';
    $dbhost = 'localhost';
    $db = mysql_connect($dbhost,$dbuser,$dbpass) or die("cannot connect to database");
    $selected = @mysql_select_db($database, $db) or die ("cannot select database");
    return $tblPrefix;
}

Why would you not use the $modx->dbconfig[’configPieceHere’] stuff so there’s no manual intervention required?
