[thelist] Complex Search using PHP/MySQL

[Tim Massey]

Thanks for the ideas - as I suspected, there is no easy way...

I have previously developed a class file 'query_builder()' which accepts
a complex array of the posted from values (and some other config
parameters such as OR, LIKE etc...) and returns a constructed WHERE
statement.

$qb = new query_builder($params);
$where = $qb->build();

So I'll use that.
