Search using values from a multiple select option
Hi! I have a multiple select option where the use can select 1 or more owners. I need to query the database based on the owners selected. There was an article i read http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/e6321043e861d1c1/cca8f2f008e7fb32?lnk=gstq=select+multiple+valuesrnum=1#cca8f2f008e7fb32 this is like A or B.What I need is A or B or C or. i.e it depends on the number of owners selected. For example if he selects owner1 and owner2 and enters 1234 as equipment number I need to check if owner1 has 1234 equipment number owner2 has 1234 equipment number i.e owner=owner1 or owner2 I can get the values from the multiple select option array($conditions['owner'] in this case). Im able to get it manually and that too only 1 value. How do I get all the values and place it in the sql? Hoping for some help Thanks!

This might be of use - it shows how to create OR conditions http://groups.google.com/group/cake-php/browse_thread/thread/4c05f96a111f7b33/bf00383ffee075f6?lnk=gstq=findall+%22or%22+%3D%3E+arrayrnum=1#bf00383ffee075f6 On Jun 6, 5:00 pm, hashkash [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi!

Re: Search using values from a multiple select option
$owners = array('1','2','3')
$equipment = $this-Equipment-findAll( array('Equipment.owner_id'=
$owners) );
This will generate WHERE `Equipment`.`owner_id` IN ('1','2','3') which
sounds like what you want.

Re: Search using values from a multiple select option
Thanks alot for the help on the OR condtions,but my problem related to the checking the owners is based on the number of owners the user selects.I cant code it directly.Its based on user selection.

$owners) );
Correct me if im wrong but from what grant Cox has written I construe
that there are only 3 owners.
In my case he no of owners keep growing as and when they register.
The owners are selected from a multiple select option.
Im not using a findAll() but using a query() because when i used the
findall()before posting on this group i got a few errors. so im using
the query().

mmm k.

The owners are selected from a multiple select option.
rhetoricalAnd in what form is that available to you in the
controller. do pr ($this-data['Equipment']['owner']); how does that
var change when you select 1, 2 or n owners in your form./rhetorical

Well that's one way to avoid being helped. Use findAll and it's simple
use query and you are on your own ;).
