texte = I'm trying to generate a link to similar items from our item detail page. Currently, our item detail page is generated by doing a search on our products database for the sku and passing that sku to a search request: [search db=^db/products.db&eqSKUdatarq=[s]] Once inside of this search, I want to do a second search for items that have the same categories as the found item. If the numfound is greater than 100, I want to automatically create a link with 3 categories. If the numfound is less than 100, I want to automatically create a link with only 2 categories: [search db=^db/products.db&eqWWWCAT_1datarq%3D[WWWCAT_1]%26eqWWWCAT_2datarq%3D[WWWCAT_2]] [showif [numfound]>100]
See similar items (includes cat 3) [/showif] [showif [numfound]<100]
See similar items (does not include cat 3) [/showif] [/search] The problem is, I think since this search is being done within the first search context, the numfound is always going to be 1. How can I do this so that this search is independent of the first search, but is still able to use the categories of the sku found in the first search?
