Create Hyperlink with Keywords

[Matt]

Hello,

I'm using the CGI version of zoom with a search page that php includes the search index file.

I am looking to create hyperlinks that display search results for keywords contained in the links.

Example:

This would pull up all search results in the video category containing the keywords chef gerry.

[url="zsearch.php?category=videos&keywords=chef,gerry"]Videos by Chef Gerry[/url]

Is it possible to do this?

Thanks for any info!

Yes. Take a look at the URL of the search page after you enter in a search query for an example query.

But, using your example, it should look more like:

[url="zsearch.php?zoom_query=chef+gerry&zoom_cat=1"]Videos by Chef Gerry[/url]

Where 1 is the category number for "videos" etc.

Some of the other parameter names can be found mentioned here:

Or you can just look at the URL of the search page and determine what you need.

Is there a way for me to specify category by name versus number?

zsearch.php?zoom_query=grilling&zoom_per_page=10&[b]zoom_cat=Videos[/b]&zoom_and=1&zoom_sort=0

If I reorder categories the current number-based links break.

Thanks!

No, unfortunately not, categories must be specified by number in the URL query.
