Thread: Advanced Search Option

  1. #1

    Advanced Search Option

    I'd like to add a search function that will have the following criteria:

    -input form
    -2 radio buttons (1) Google (2) Current Website
    -if 1 is checked, it will perform a search from google
    -if 2 is checked, it will do a post into a php file reading from Mysql database

    I already know how to take care of the php file and mysql database, but I need to know how to code it in flash and to specify the two different actions.

    How can I achieve this? (Please be detailed if possible, I've passed the beginner stage, but am still new--A sample fla file would be extremely helpful)

    Thanks in advance.

    If you're using the radio button components in MX2004...

    1.) Set the 'groupName' parameter for each radio button to the name of the var your PHP page expects. (Think of the name attribute in the input tag in an HTML form.)

    2.) Set the 'data' parameter for each radio button like you would the value attribute of a radio button in an HTML form.
