Additional Auto Search Features Can't Post

I am building an automotive site. Client would like to see the following additions to search engine;

Able to choose a radius in miles from a zip code for auto search. He would also like to see a model search when make of car is selected. Is this possible?

If this was CMSBuilder would it be easier to add these searches then Auto Manager?

Thanks for your time..

Hi Melinda,

Thanks for posting!

ZIP code searches aren't possible in Listings Manager. The problem here is that that would require a separate database containing every ZIP code to reference against. What is possible to do in Listings Manager is a search by neighbourhood or area.

The make/model behaviour you described could be accomplished through the use of javascript in conjunction with your form tags, but isn't something that would be set up by default in either Listings Manager or CMS Builder.

Let us know if you have any other questions. Smile

Jake..

Thanks for your reply.

Is it possible to get a quote on this item you mentioned in your post?

-------The make/model behaviour you described could be accomplished through the use of javascript in conjunction with your form tags, but isn't something that would be set up by default in either Listings Manager or CMS Builder.-----

My client would like to have a models selection in the form. How it would work - The car would be selected first (which is already in the form) and upon the selection of type of car such as Chevrolet , then the model selections would populate in the form appropriate for a chevrolet. The model list would change upon a selection of a different type of car such as Buick It would be in a drop down list.

We are using Auto Manager and the link is here:

Thanks again.
