Hi Folks,
When I use the search facility on my results page, it narrows down to what im searching for perfectly, however when i return to the results page again and again in the same browser it doesnt let go of the searched information and will not show the complete results page. The only way i can do this is to close down that browser and open a new browser up. Is there something im missing here? Im using php.

Cheers

It sounds like its keeping hold of the search criteria (in the URL at the top) as you are clicking the 'back button'. When you return to the search results page, press the search button again... (you will have nothing selected at this moment) does that return all the products again?

So you may need something like a SHOW ALL RESULTS option button which users will press to reveal all the results again.



Hope this helps

Hi,
Thanks for this. If I click on the search link it takes me to the search page and if i return a blank search it brings me back to the full products list on the results page. I need to be able to set up a button that does this automatically for me when pressed so the user can hit it and see all results instead of the search filtered results.

If you come across it, heres what to do.

Open up the dataassist server behavior. Note the value of the trigger.

If it has something like $_GET['thisvalue'] in the trigger, then a link to the page like:

page.php?thisvalue=0

would clear the filter.
