I have a 'person' table and would like to filter by birth date, is it possible in the search screen to filter the birth date with something like

between '02/11/1986' and '05/11/1986'

?
I mean, can a date be filtered by ranges?

I just tried this, and it doesn't work for me.
In _cm_pre_getData() the two added fields aren't included in $fieldarray.
Also if I put this code in the detail screen:

$structure['main']['fields'][1][] = array('label' => 'Date From');
$structure['main']['fields'][1][] = array('field' => 'date_from');
$structure['main']['fields'][1][] = array('label' => 'To');
$structure['main']['fields'][1][] = array('field' => 'date_to');

the fields don't appear, I had to put this code to show the fields:

$structure['main']['fields'][] = array('label' => 'Date From');
$structure['main']['fields'][] = array('date_from' => 'date_from');
$structure['main']['fields'][] = array('label' => 'To');
$structure['main']['fields'][] = array('date_to' => 'date_to');

There are two ways of defining fields in the $structure array:

..['fields'][1][]  // puts all the fields in the same line (line 1 in this example).
..['fields'][]     // puts each field on a separate line.

You are correct in saying that _cm_pre_getData() does not add the two fields to $fieldarray. This is done by code in std.search1.inc.

So what should I do to make this work?

In _cm_pre_getData the tw date fields aren't in $fieldarray, therefore this code is never executed:

	if (!empty($fieldarray['date_from']) OR !empty($fieldarray['date_to'])) {
	    $fieldarray['fecnac'] = rangeFromTo($fieldarray['date_from'], $fieldarray['date_to'], true);
	    unset($fieldarray['date_from']);
	    unset($fieldarray['date_to']);
	} // if

I can see the search fields, but it doesn't filter correctly, are there any working example?

This

['fields'][1][]

isn't working for me..

Yes. In the Radicore system go to Home -> Audit where you will see screen http://www.tonymarston.net/php-mysql/menuguide/audit_dtl(sea rch).html. When you press the SUBMIT button this will pass conrol to screen http://www.tonymarston.net/php-mysql/menuguide/audit_dtl(lis t)2.html. This is where the "date_from" and "date_to" fields are used to construct a value for the "trn_date" field.

Then you are doing something wrong. Take a look at the working example above which uses file radicore\audit\screens\en\audit_tbl.detail.screen.inc as its screen structure file.

Ok, looing at the example I found I needed more code:

        if (empty($this->sql_search)) return $where;

        // convert from string to an associative array
        $fieldarray = where2array($this->sql_search, false, false);

	if (!empty($fieldarray['date_from']) OR !empty($fieldarray['date_to'])) {
	    $fieldarray['fecnac'] = rangeFromTo($fieldarray['date_from'], $fieldarray['date_to'], true);
	    unset($fieldarray['date_from']);
	    unset($fieldarray['date_to']);
	} // if
	
	$this->sql_search = array2where($fieldarray);

Everything is working now, thanks.
