keyword search - 4/4/2005 22:47:04
Hi all,
I am putting together a page that will allow employers to view profiles of potential candidates, searchable by position title and then use check boxes to enquire further.
The page works well with the exception of a limited search function.
The trial data includes position titles of "Plant or General Manager" and "Operations Manager"
When I enter manager both profiles return.
When I enter Operations Manager the Operations Manager profile returns
When I enter Plant Manager I receive no records returned
I am using the LIKE function.
How do I set it up so two or more key words entered will bring back results even if it is not an exact match. (eg. When plant manager is entered the Plant or General Manager profile returns).
Trail page can be viewed at meridiansearch trial page
Thanks in advance,
Larry

Thanks Spooky,
Worked like a charm in providing the search results.
However when the page is entered for the first time I receive the error message
Database Results Error: mismatched parameter delimiters
This also appears if you submit without entering keywords.

RE: keyword search - 4/5/2005 16:10:20
Sorry Spooky,
Getting the same error when using this code
Position = replace(request.form("position")," ","%")
If Position &""="" then Position = "%"
fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM Results WHERE ([position] LIKE '%"&position&"%')"
fp_sDefault="position="
Do you mean replace the fp_sDefault="position=" with If Position &""="" then Position = "%"
I have tried this as well but same result
Thanks

RE: keyword search - 4/5/2005 16:47:51
This is the new error I'm getting
SELECT * FROM Results WHERE ([position] LIKE '%%%')Database Results Error: mismatched parameter delimiters
From this code
Position = replace(request.form("position")," ","%")
If Position &""="" then Position = "%"
fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM Results WHERE ([position] LIKE '%"&position&"%')"
response.write fp_sQry
fp_sDefault="position="

RE: keyword search - 4/6/2005 10:57:11
No Luck
Replaced the includes file with the old and have used the following code:
<!--#include file="../_fpclass/fpdblib.inc"-->
<% if 0 then %>
<SCRIPT Language="JavaScript">
document.write("<div style='background: yellow; color: black;'>The Database Results component on this page is unable to display database content. The page must have a filename ending in '.asp', and the web must be hosted on a server that supports Active Server Pages.</div>");
</SCRIPT>
<% end if %>
<%
Position = replace(replace(request.form("position"),"'","''")," ","%")
If Position &""="" then Position = "%"
fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM Results WHERE ([position] LIKE '%"&position&"%')"
fp_sNoRecords="<tr><td colspan=3 align=left width=""100%"">No records match your search. Please try again</td></tr>"
fp_sDataConn="Trialdat"
fp_iMaxRecords=256
fp_iCommandType=1
fp_iPageSize=0
fp_fTableFormat=True
fp_fMenuFormat=False
fp_sMenuChoice=""
fp_sMenuValue=""
fp_sColTypes="&ID=3&name=202&city=202&province=202&email=202&phone=202&position=202&desiredposition=202&description=203&Remote_computer_name=202&User_name=202&Browser_type=202&Timestamp=135&"
fp_iDisplayCols=3
fp_fCustomQuery=True
BOTID=0
fp_iRegion=BOTID
<!--#include file="../_fpclass/fpdbrgn1.inc"-->
Results
Database Results Error: mismatched parameter delimiters
FYI - I did a google and yahoo search using the above error and it came back with many, many sites that have the same problem but have not fixed - YIKES!

RE: keyword search - 4/6/2005 12:43:26
What if you replace:
Position = replace(replace(request.form("position"),"'","''")," ","%")
If Position &""="" then Position = "%"
fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM Results WHERE ([position] LIKE '%"&position&"%')"
with simply:
Position = replace(request.form("position"),"'","''")
fp_sQry="SELECT * FROM Results WHERE ([position] LIKE '%"&position&"%')"

Thanks Duane,
Still getting the same message.
I have been looking at a thread that you had helped out with on an apostraphe issue whereas the same message was being displayed.
I was hoping it might hold some answers. The thread is Apostraphe Issues
Thanks, Larry

Sorry Spooky,
Still the same.
Grasping at straws but would the name position be causing any of this? I do know that it is a reserved word.

RE: keyword search - 4/6/2005 17:08:09
This is perhaps the most creative thing I have ever tried, but in theory it works. Try this:
Assuming this is the last code you tried:
Position = replace(replace(request.form("position"),"'","''")," ","%")
If Position &""="" then Position = "%"
sQry = "SELECT * FROM Results WHERE ([position] LIKE '%"&position&"%')"
fp_sQry = sQry
Replace the above with:
<%
varString = trim(replace(request.form("position"), "'","''"))
arrString = Split(varString, " ")
mySQL = "SELECT * FROM Results WHERE [position] LIKE '%"&arrString(0)&"%' "
If Ubound(arrString)> 0 Then
For i = 1 to Ubound(arrString)
mySQL = mySQL & " AND fldname LIKE '%"&arrString(i)&"%' "
Next
End If
fp_sQry = mySQL

Yes the above works with no error.

RE: keyword search - 4/6/2005 17:24:01
Hi Duane,
When the field is blank this returns error as:
Microsoft VBScript runtime error '800a0009'
Subscript out of range: '[number: 0]'
/traditional/trial.asp, line 154
When you fill in the search field with manager and submit, all manager positions return ok
When you fill in the search field with plant manager and submit the following error returns:
Database Results Error
Description: No value given for one or more required parameters.
Number: -2147217904 (0x80040E10)

RE: keyword search - 4/6/2005 17:30:59
Sorry forgot to change fldname to [position] in one instance. I also have added an If/Then to address an empty form field. See where this one gets you:
<%
If trim(replace(request.form("position")&"" <> ""
Then
varString = trim(replace(request.form("position"), "'","''"))
arrString = Split(varString, " ")
mySQL = "SELECT * FROM Results WHERE [position] LIKE '%"&arrString(0)&"%' "
If Ubound(arrString)> 0 Then
For i = 1 to Ubound(arrString)
mySQL = mySQL & " AND [position] LIKE '%"&arrString(i)&"%' "
Next
End If
Else
mySQL = "SELECT * FROM Results"
fp_sQry = mySQL

Change:
If trim(replace(request.form("position")&"" <> ""
to
If trim(replace(request.form("position"))&"" <> ""

Same error returns:
Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03ee'
Expected ')'
/traditional/trial.asp, line 152
If trim(replace(request.form("position"))&"" <> ""
--------------------------------------------------^
I place another bracket and received this error:
Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a03f9'
Expected 'Then'
/traditional/trial.asp, line 152
If trim(replace(request.form("position")))&"" <> ""

Sorry, I am cutting and pasting from a test page:

With the code:
<% end if %>
<%
If trim(request.form("position"))&"" <> "" Then
varString = trim(replace(request.form("position"), "'","''"))
arrString = Split(varString, " ")
mySQL = "SELECT * FROM Results WHERE [position] LIKE '%"&arrString(0)&"%' "
If Ubound(arrString)> 0 Then
For i = 1 to Ubound(arrString)
mySQL = mySQL & " AND [position] LIKE '%"&arrString(i)&"%' "
Next
End If
Else
mySQL = "SELECT * FROM Results"
fp_sQry = mySQL
fp_sNoRecords="<tr><td colspan=3 align=left width=""100%"">No records match your search. Please try again</td></tr>"
fp_sDataConn="Trialdat"

fp_iDisplayCols=3

Now displays error:
