Hi all,
I have created a class which contains a number of selection datatypes.What I would like to be able to do is to create a form with pulldown lists for users to limit their fetch by choosing what they want from those selection datatypes.
To try to explain it a bit better, the content class look like the following
-title -body -selection_a -----option_a_1 -----option_a_2 -----option_a_3 -selection_b -----option_b_1 -----option_b_2 -----option_b_1 -selection_c -----option_c_1 -----option_c_2 -----option_c_3 -rating-url
I would like the user to be able to choose each option for each datatype through a series of pulldown menus, and then when the form is submitted to produce a list of results that have each of those options. I would then like to sort the list by rating (descending)
I know this has something to do with fetch and sort, but I am at a complete loss as to how to create the pulldown lists.
Thanks in advanace,
Tim

You should use attribute filter and sorting by attribute. Check the examples on the bottom of this page:
