Search and display multiple databases?

Search and display multiple databases?

Hello,
I am trying to create a search page that will pull results from 3 different databases of information (i.e. databases are the same information, but are seperated by sponsor level, preferred, partners, other). I need the result page to display the results from each database in order under their respective database title. Is there way to accomplish this using Data Assist, or can Data Assist at least be helpful in the process if not? Thanks in advance for any direction and help!

you would need to create separate results pages for each database, you could then use framework builder plugins to add the results pages to one main page to show them each in the main page.

Thanks for the help. I have created the results pages and have tried to figure out how to use the plugins to create the page, and must not be doing it right. Could you give me a bit more direction on how to proceed with the framework builder? Also, will something similar need to be done with the search page, in order for all databases to be included? Thanks for the help.

to add the pages as plugins open the main page, then go to WebAssist -> Framework Builder -> Plugin -> Insert Plugin, and select the plugin page.


for the search form, you will need to add all search fields into one search form.

Thank you, I believe I have been setting up the plugins page correctly then, but I keep receiving the following error:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class WA_AltClassIterator

When I set up the trigger variable for each plugin, do I refer to the same search page? That is what I have been doing. Perhaps I don't have the search page set up properly? Thanks for your help.
