"Click On" search routine....

I am looking for a contribution, suggestion, idea-how-to-create a search that would find by item clicked on.

 

For example:

 

If I had a page with all the countries in Africa listed on it. I would like the search engine to find all the items produced in the Congo just by clicking on "Congo."

 

Is this possible? I have tried a few drop-down menu search items, even tried to redesign them for this option, but haven't come up with anything that works yet.

 

Any ideas will be gratefully appriciated.

Just between us, remember there are only 10 kinds of people in the world; those who understand binary and those who don't!!

If you are not using the manufacturers you could modify the manufacturers box to display on a page and modify the languages files to display "countries" instead of manufacturers.

Or you could copy and change the manufacturers box for countries but that would also require new fields in the database.

Thank you. That's one I didn't think of. I already have new fields in the database for "continent," "country," and "state/region."

 

I'll definitly give this a try. It sounds promising.
