power search by date range or time range

[yellblue]

I'd like to do power search by date range (and maybe time)

example: all links submit between 07/01/05 - 07/01/06

or even better: from 07/01/05 12:00:00 - 07/01/06 12:00:00

Is this even possible? I'll try harder if it is. But if anyone knows how to do it I'd love to know (even if it means reinstalling etc)

Thanks

As it sits, IndexU is not able to do this. Although it is possible to modify the script to do it.

The main issue is that the search feature can't do it, so you'd have to create a new search box. I have no idea what code you'd use.

You can mess with this code.

<form method="get" action="http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi/gateway.cgi">
<input type="hidden" name="pflag" value="search"><table border="0" cellpadding="0" width="100%" cellspacing="0">
<tr>
<td height="50" width="100%"><div align="right"><p><font face="Arial" size="-1" color="#000000"><b>Search On:</b> </font><font face="Arial" size="-2" color="#000000"><select size="1" name="source">
<option value="title">Business Name</option>
<option value="description">Description</option>
<option value="contact_name">Contact</option>
<option value="street">Street</option>
<option value="city">City</option>
<option value="zip_code">Postal Code</option>
<option value="phone">Phone</option>
<option value="fax">Fax</option>
</select></font><br>
<img src="images/spacer.gif" width="1" height="4"><br>
<font face="Arial" size="-2" color="#000000"><input size="20" type="text" name="search"> <input value="Search" type="submit"></font></td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

Maybe you can alter this setup..

I used it on www.CalgaryBusiness.ca (top right) to search on specific fields.

Attached is the gateway.cgi script

Good luck
