Can anyone make a search that will do a search by Login name, First name, Last name? I'm using the one out of PM now, but it only does by Login Name. I'm looking for one that will do all 3. Makes it easier when You have A LOT of members.
Thanks Rick

Once you have found your user, what would you want to do ?

The Option to click and see the profile is all I need, but someone may want to send a email or PM to that person.
The perfect search would return the users or close match to user "Like if I put "Ro" in it would return everything with "Ro" in it. and with the Icons next to the name with Email,PM,ICQ,AOL,Yahoo.. etc.. Just like it shows above thier post in the Message board "The row of Icons"
But all I need is to search 3 fields. Member Name,First and last name.
I've cut up PM Search close to what I want.. Here it is if you want to see it just drop it in your Forums folder and it should run, but remember I'm Just learning about ASP!

What if the members.asp was improved to have a search option and also have an index system like personal messaging has. Somewhere at the top of the member table add an index: A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H etc. Each is just a querystring value and links back to members.asp?index=A
If posted from a form then do the member handle, first name, last name search. Would it take a regular expression to accomplish what rick7165 asked for? Is that an issue with most providers?
While thinking over what you would want to search for on a large system . . . would there be any use for searching on other attributes? Example: to tie into the email members mod and preselect a certain group based on a member attribute?
So if it's taken that far, would you want to be able to search based on the configurable member fields (MOD).
Obviously I like taking things too far. <img src=icon_smile_cool.gif border=0 align=middle>
So with a small table or tr at the top of the list of members you have an index A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J|K|L etc. and then a form field and submit button.
Would you want the search to do all the thinking for you or allow you to select what to search on?
A select box could handle a single attribute for a quick search. I guess you would need a dedicated form for more complex combinations. Ok - now I'm just rambling . . . . <img src=icon_smile_shy.gif border=0 align=middle>

<BLOCKQUOTE id=quote><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica" id=quote>quote:<hr height=1 noshade id=quote> try this srchmembers.asp

Instant working solutions just add HUWR! <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle>
This is great! I would still like to see these features on the members.asp page.
Did someone already improve the "paging" feature of the current members.asp page?
Viewing page 24 of 70 pages << previous next>>
Instead of the current: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 thru 70?

HuwR... The search works Great! , but the Alphabet at the bottom doesn't work.. I hold the mouse over it and it says this srchmembers.asp?mode=search&M_NAME=j&view=Calender Then when I click on it I get this error:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e14'
Syntax error (missing operator) in query expression '()'.
/Forums/srchmembers.asp, line 77

HuwR,
Can we do this on the members.asp page instead of openning anew window?

Do you want it to replace the current paging? or just be an additional feature?
