Here is a piece of code to allow searching of bookmarks. It's intended to be added to a code module before the bookmarks module, but could be easily adopted to fit into a template.
if( isset( $_GET['search'] ) ) {
$query_links = $database->query("SELECT title,url,target FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."mod_bookmarks_links WHERE title LIKE '%".$_GET[search]."%' ORDER BY position ASC");
if( $query_links->numRows() > 0 ) {
print '<p>Search results for "'.$_GET['search'].'":';
print '<ul>';
while($link = $query_links->fetchRow()) {
print '<li>';
print '<a href="'.$link['url'].'" target="'.$link['target'].'">';
print $link['title'];
print '</a>';
print '</li>';
}
print '</ul>';
} else {
print '<p>Sorry, no results found for "'.$_GET['search'].'".</p>';
}
} else {
print '<form method="GET" action="'.$_ENV[PHP_SELF].'" style="margin:0px;">';
print '<p style="margin-bottom:0px;padding-bottom:0px;">Search bookmarks: ';
print '<input type="text" name="search" size="30">';
print '<input type="submit" value=" Search "></p>';
print '</form>';
}
print '<hr>'; // remove this line to get rid of the visible horizontal rule.

Thanks Craig, works good :D
Hmm, one day when I get my act together, the bookmarks module will be searchable through the main search feature - so we won't have to write stuff like this anymore. As for now, your code is great! 8)
I didn't notice the bookmarks weren't searchable until after I'd made that code, I just wanted a way to only search the bookmarks, and have the search box on the same page :wink:
Well, great work then! 8)
Is there a simple mod to this code to allow it to also search by the text in the title attribute - not only the link text? (This info is currently pulled from the Display field in the Bookmarks module.)
