Searchbox only in selected field was created by william.kcperformance
Is it possible to hide the "All fields" option in the search box, this causes to show unwanted results.
I've created a specific field in which I want the user to search, in this field there's for instance: [ ALFA ROMEO 147 1.9 JTD Diesel 2003 ]
Someone who is looking for a certain car can use this as quick search, let's say he enters 147 1.9 jtd 03...

Only is you use the same field two times in the form. The "All fields" option is meant to reset the result for multiple selects. If you don't want to change the joodb core directly you can use javascript to remove the first item from the select boxes.

Insert the following code into your template:
<script type="text/javascript" >
$$('select.groupselect').each(function(el){el.remove(0)});
</script>

Hi Dirk, thanks a lot for your reply! :-)

I'm sorry, I didn't ask/explain clear enough.
What I mean is that I've created a column that contains the data that can be used to find a specific car.
So a visitor can search with the term " 145 1.4 ts" for instance.
The problem is that when all fields are being used, also the cars with 145 bhp show up.
Thus, because I've set it up like this, the "All fields" pull down is redundant, "reset" also but that's another story.
Also, since I use only one field, the pull down has no use I guess?

Can you assist me with this, thanks a lot anyway!
