Search Parameters (URL Search Strings)

[Jman423]

Maybe I've missed this somewhere, but I've been searching for a while now.

Is there a place where the all of the search parameters to build a search URL are listed?

I am trying to build a URL that gets new posts from 3 forums within the same section/category. I can make it work with one, but I can't seem to get it to search all three forums.

Any help would be much appreciated!

-Thank you

I should mention that I am using vB4.1

Someone out there has to know how to do this...

I'll help ya out ;) Here's an article on vb.com for 3.0 but I believe it should work for 4.0

I know this thread is old, but I've been trying to set up a search string that searches a certain username in certain forums, but it doesn't work:
http://www.simfansuk.com/sims/search.php?do=process&forumchoice[]=288&childforums=1&searchuser=ladyangel&starteronly=1
However, this just gives me a results page with the user all threads in all forums.

When I leave out the username it doesn't work either, just takes me to an error page stating the the search parameters are too wide.
