Re: [Zope] Searching ZCatalog on multiple properties

I see what you're getting at, but I don't think I was specific enough in my question. What I want to do is limit the names shown to the user before they actually make a search. Right now, the uniqueValuesFor('User') queries all of the stories in the catalog and returns a Select list of all of the Users who have written stories. I want to limit that Select list rather than only limiting the search results. on 2/15/01 2:39 PM, Andy McKay at andym@ActiveState.com wrote:

Setting variables in the REQUEST is bad but always works reliably. These can be set in the form that posts to the search (see Zope.org) or as a last resort do:

<dtml-call "REQUEST.set('Column', 'Category')"> <dtml-in NewsCatalog>
