7,914 PointsAdvanced Search Functionality - Django
Im looking to implement a advanced search functionality on a website I’m building in Django and I’m a bit stuck where to start. Does anyone have nay experience doing this?
Has anyone had any experience in doing this in any other languages? Or know of a general why to accomplish this?
The advanced search functionality I'm wanting to implement is similar to eBays - http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/i.html?_odkw=django&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.Xpython+django&_nkw=python+django&_sacat=0 (down the left and side).
