Forwarding comments from Andrew. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: RE: [Tools List] Simple Search using drop-down list boxes Date: Fri, 3 Feb 2006 22:17:25 +1100 From: Andrew Arch <andrew.arch@nils.org.au> To: <shadi@w3.org> Hi Shadi, Personally I like the drop-downs. This is meant to be a _simple_ search, and the options of just one category from each list fits this criteria for me, rather than the (growing) checkbox list that allows one to search on multiple criteria from each list. However, I'm in support of Justin's suggestion that we need to add "web interface" or similar to the 'platform' list in this presentation as otherwise folk are likely to try and select the OS that they are currently using which is not necessarily what they should do.

Especially if the entries for language etc get even longer (which we anticipate). Suggestions and comments on how each one of these works or does not work for you is welcome.
