I don't even know how to explain the weirdness of this one except to show the query it's making when it displays the error http://www.customlasercutting.com/site/info/materials Scroll down to the yellow "Materials search too" box and try selecting, say... black AND black top white core (under colors). Normally the query uses IN, not LIKE, but so I could see the query, I made it like that. Notice how it puts %2520 for spaces (or %252F for /)? It messes up the query, obviously. How would I tell it to output a " " instead of %2520? Also, it only does it when multiple items are selected. If you select JUST one item with spaces, it works Ruby code: http://pastie.caboo.se/69978 Select boxes: http://pastie.caboo.se/69979 Any help with this would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
