Thank you for your thoughts... I cannot help but think that we're missing a much-needed tool here for beginners who need to make a complex query.
Shopping for cars, televisions, houses, vacations... All require this method. People shopping are probably beginners, since they probably don't make these purchases daily. For a car, for example, I could conceivably care about all kinds of things, 10s, if not 100s: - color - MPG - horse power - make / model - where it's made - sun roof - leather seats - etc. etc. I wonder if the solution musn't by necessity start with a query and then break that down into "The Filters we Think You Care About" / More filters (maybe the more filters is even a query field). In that way, beginners aren't confronted with a complex filter they don't recognize... I'll post here if I find or come up with any solutions that are useful. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
