Using Custom fileds as search criterium

[khm1972]

Hi

I have a question concerning a functionality that do not seem to exist in Coppermine today.

I have added a Custome field for Image description called "Lense" - and when postning photos I fill this with the type of lense used for the shot. Currently thats 5 different lenses.

My question is, if it's possible to make a search function on a page outside Coppermine, where you can select the 5 different lenses from a drop-down function and then as a search result get all the images taken with the choosen lense??

If this function alleready exists - could someon please refer me to the correct page?

Thanks

Thanks, but that was not was I was lookin for. I allready have the search function implementet and working on my index page (http://www.markussens.dk/index.php) outside Coppermine.

What I am looking for is a drop down/search function in wich my lenses are predefined. So when the visitor choose a specific lense from the drop down menu (search field), the visitor will get all my photos where the respective lense have been used.



Thanks

Well, then create the corresponding <select><option> HTML contructs. No particular coppermine stuff needed, just plain HTML.

I have a question similar to this topic.

I need the drop down when uploading a file on upload.php.
I have a mod of 20 custom fields and its working fine. Can I use any of the custom fields to have SELECT/drop down list with a couple of specific values ?

Not similar, but totally different. Closing, locking.
