The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

How to retain user input in a search form from page to page using Dreamweaver CS3 and PHP

Asked by BelindaFerraz in PHP and Databases, Macromedia Dreamweaver, MySQL Server

Tags: PHP, Firefox, safari

I am currently designing a real estate website using Dreamweaver CS3, php, MySQL on a Mac. On it is a 'property search' form that queries the property database. I am wanting to know how to retain/keep displayed the values a user has filled in the search form from page to page. The search form is located in the left hand panel on every page (it is in the template) of the website so a user can do a property search from any page. Once the form has been filled in and submited it links off to 'results.php' but on the results page the form has been reset. I would like the values selected on the form to remain when linked off to results page so the user can alter his selection if he wants.

Hope this makes sense.

Attached is the code for my form that I have in my templates for the site.

Can anyone help?

Thanks
Belinda
