Need help with form

This WebDNA talk-list message is from

1998

It keeps the original formatting. numero = 18258
interpreted = N
texte = Okay, it's time to throw in the towel and ask.I cobbled together a search page for a picture archive, and it works well.But I've come to a screeching halt in trying to add a search-by-date-addedfunction to it. Apparently I just don't know enough about building formswith WebCat; I suspect it has to be something with the form itself. As itis, the popup menu is there, but the choices all act as if all dates arevalid. (If I replace the date field with group1data and valid data for thevalue, it works.) As suggested earlier, I've entered my database dates as'days since 00/00/0000', but a couple of dummy dates 06/15/98 fail to workalso.Also, any hints would be appreciated on how to get the SearchTitle to windup with the search words they chose -- that's my next project to make work.Here's the form and the nonworking date and SearchTitle parts at the end:

 high heels
 sandals
 close up
 face shows

------(about 40 more search words I excised to shorten this)----- 


Enter additionalword(s). examples: celebrity's name, movie title, etc.ALL checkedkeywords MUST match
ANY checked keywords maymatch  Find files added in the past (Search all files) week 2 weeks month 2 months
