Creating the search page A search page on the web typically contains form fields in which the user enters search parameters. When the user clicks the form’s Search button, the search parameters are sent to a results page on the server. The results page on the server, not the search page on the browser, is responsible for retrieving records from the database. To get started on this part of your web application, create two pages: a search page that lets users enter the search parameters, and a results page to display the records found. You can even combine the two pages into one. At minimum, your search page must have an HTML form with a Submit button. To add an HTML form to a search page: Open the search page and select Form from the Insert menu. An empty form is created on the page. You may have to turn on Invisible Elements (View > Visual Aids > Invisible Elements) to see the form’s boundaries, which are represented by thin red lines. Add form objects for users to enter their search parameters by choosing Form Objects from the Insert menu. Form objects include text fields, list menus, checkboxes, and radio buttons. You can add as many form objects as you want to help users refine their searches. However, keep in mind that the greater the number of search parameters on the search page, the more complex your SQL statement will be. For more information on form objects, Creating Interactive Forms. Add a Submit button to the form (Insert > Form Objects > Button). If you wish, change the label of the Submit button by selecting the button, opening the Property inspector (Window > Properties), and entering a new value in the Label box. For example, here’s the Property inspector of a button labeled “search”: Next, you’ll tell the form where to send the search parameters when the user clicks the Submit button. Select the form by selecting the
tag in the tag selector at the bottom of the Document window, as shown: In the Action box on the form’s Property inspector, enter the filename of the results page that will conduct the database search. In the Method pop-up menu, choose one of the following methods to determine how the form sends data to the server: GET sends the form data by appending it to the URL as a query string. Because URLs are limited to 8192 characters, don’t use the GET method with long forms. POST sends the form data in the body of a message. Default uses the browser’s default method (usually GET).
