Input box and filters
I would like to use an input box to ask a person for (up to) 2 keywords and
then copy those words to a custom filter to search through approx 10,000 lines of data. I haven't been able to figure out how to get an input box with 2 seperate lines for keyword entry's and then copy those words over to the 2 fields in the custom search. Any help would be very welcomed. |
