Yes but only if we will have just tag filtering. I was the first to propose a sort of tag cloud and I fell in love with it but later I realized that tag filtering is just one of the many filtering options that we should implement: date, location, equipment, buddy, etc... Hence I began to think to a more "holistic" approach in which tag filtering is one of the several search I need. >From the UI point of view would be important having the same approach for the various searches and not having a tag cloud, a text input and combo boxes for different task/search. Tomaz told that the search code is pretty much independent from the UI implementation. Regarding the OR/AND between tags I agree that could be useful having both options but I guess we all are accustomed to AND by default. When we search via google we expect having only results with all input words/keys (and not like the ancient Altavista model). Same with usual web tag clouds. So when selecting "drift" and "reef" I would like seeing only dives with both tags. Otherwise the more tags I select the more dives I find. -- Davide https://vimeo.com/bocio/videos _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list subsurface@hohndel.org http://lists.hohndel.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
