Re: Pier - Advanced Search

Hi Mariano, The CSS is at: http://smallwiki2.seasidehosting.st/seaside/pier/environment/style.5.css The part that is probably interesting is: div#lightbox { background: white; border: 1px solid #0000e8; padding: 2em;} Environment is setup as: <div class="search column span-4 last">++Advanced Search++</div> <div class="search column span-4 last">+search+</div> The search is a standard PRSearch component, Advanced Search is a page: Click on the 'x' to close this. Search will start searching from the current structure, evaluating each criteria in order. Click *here>/* to go to the root, and *here>..* to go to the parent. +search+ Search is a PRAdvancedSearch component.

I imagine is something like this ++/advancedSearch++ Do I need to have Pier LightBox addon to do exactly what you have there? and I guess I must add SULibrary to my app. anything more?
