How to recive the content from a simpel html search form and bind it in a xslt-loop?
I have a page who recive a content from a contour form in umbraco.
On this xslt - page I whant to do a small html based search form, so my customors can do a individual search on all that post.
I think i have no problem with build a html form, and i think i have no problem with building a loop in xslt. But binding the result from form-action to the xslt-loop i have little problem to figure out?? How I recive the information in to the xslt-loop?
You can use the library methods RequestQueryString() and RequestForm() to get the data you need, e.g. if your search form uses GET, you can extract the value of a field by using:

Hi Kaj,
You can use the library methods RequestQueryString() and RequestForm() to get the data you need, e.g. if your search form uses GET, you can extract the value of a field by using:
<xsl:variable name="searchQuery" select="umbraco.library:RequestQueryString('q')" />- which you can then use in the rest of the XSLT.

Ok, thanx! I´m going to try with thouse methods..
In this case what should I put in the submit action? Should I just put the url that all is about?

Hi Kaj
Yes - that should do the trick :)

Yeah, for the submit action you should put the URL of the page that contains the XSLT that uses RequestQueryString() and RequestForm().
