I am working on a very simple form at http://www.southwindford.com/index.php. The page that it should post to is
http://www.southwindford.com/all_vehicle_listings.php.

There are 4 fields on my form - 2 radio buttons and 2 dropdown boxes. For some reason, the form is simply not working. Can you tell me what the basics of the search form are?

FYI, the radio buttons search a field called "condition" which is a dropdown field on the "listings" section editor. The only 2 options for the "condition" field are either "New" or "Used".

One text field is titled "year", and is a dropdown field on the "listings" editor.

The second text field is titled "category_name". It also exists as a field on the "listings" editor, but is created by the "get options from database" feature. (It is ultimately a field in a table named "vehicle_category").

The form returns empty results no matter what is posted. I want it to return only results that match all conditions (new or used, year, and vehicle category). What do I need to do to make this work?
