search for: cateogry

I'm trying to figure out about factors, however the on-line documentation is rather sparse. I guess, factors are intended for grouping arrays members into categories, which R names "Levels". And so we have: * state <- c("tas", "sa", "qld", "nsw", "nsw", "nt", "wa", "wa",

...;/script> Now, I have for example a major category, with many items in that category. What I want to do is, show the category name, but under this category, hide the related items. This is done is one loop since I have a HASBTM relationship. For example then in pseudo code: for each cat in cateogry /possible cats are kitchen, living room, garage <table> <tr> <td>Kitchen (show more)</td> </tr> <tr> div <td>knife $3.00 Buy Now</td> <td>Spatula $5.00 Buy Now</td> ...etc /div </tr> </table> I want to do somethin...

...search for records specified by title, content and category name. Is there an known solution to my problem ? In Ferret, how can I specify a search accross many tables for results returning only a main class (in the example, search all posts that have a certain category name by just typing that cateogry name as the query) ? Do I have to create a new model class PostIndex that gathers all the information just for the indexing, even though the information is not stored that way in the database ?
