Thanks.
The search won't match for words equal to or less than 3 letters, and it's supposedly smart. Check the http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/fulltext-boolean.html for more information.

ok
maybe you could have a simple search with just one input and have the extensive stuff hidden behind a javascript thingie?

Because PHP's strtotime uses that. If you prefer to type in the dates you can do DD-MM-YYYY instead, or type in "5 days ago"

But it doesn't work. It displays "23 May" on the calendar but the results ignore it unless you enter the dates as MM-DD-YYYY.

Works now. But why is it okay to use MM/DD/YY but not DD/MM/YY?
r04r !GETFUCKED (OP) replied with this 15 years ago, 55 seconds later, 46 minutes after the original post[^][v]#278,756
@previous (D)
Because it expects MM/DD/YYYY and it won't be able to differentiate. If you want to manually use the DD/MM/YYYY you have to use -'s instead of /'s to indicate that you're using that other format.

That's why the strptime function exists.

1) strptime doesn't return an unix timestamp which is what we use
2) Nothing wrong at all with strtotime, and I rather like its parsing capabilities

I preferred the original, not-so-cluttered version.

It'd make a good "Advanced Search" mechanism.

@previous (HaikerensGuide !0VegJ9Jl.Q)
this. I want to be able to just have one bar to type into if I don't feel like going through all those fields. maybe there could be a separate simple and advanced search.

You don't need to fill in all fields, bro, but I understand why you'd like both options.

You only need one of the first two fields if you just want to do a basic search.
