    Shopping for bike?

    Hey guys, been a while =P
    Been building this in my lunch breaks, releasing something more finished looking soonish.
    Trademe bike search tool
    Pretty much just built it for odometer filtering functionality..
    Hope someone finds it useful =)
    Note: Still working around how massive the table has to be to fit everything.. Currently total listings run about 6mb (holyshit)... Loads the most recent 6000 listings atm

    Oh and if anyone has any ideas for ways to improve it I'll chuck em in when I have time.

    Edit - as of about half an hour ago page isn't loading...
    Edit edit - Nope, it's back

    29.8 5pm v7 now with relevant categories! (slow evening at work)
    30.8 2pm v8 now with regions and thumbnails...

    Thumbs up

    Ooh I've always wanted something like that, have you thought about adding something to filter no reserve/reserve met/not met?

    Also if you could have an excluding a certain type (e.g. when searching for a road bike you don't really want dirtbikes but may not be fussy about whether it is sports, cruiser, tourer etc)

    Yes at the moment its loading bare minimum columns but aim is to have show/hide functions on all of the important ones..

    At the moment changing it over so it loads...
    Code:
    $types = array(
    		'classic',
    		'cruiser',
    		'dual',
    		'sports',
    		'tourers'
    		);
    which should bring the total size down to something less server breaky too.. << This now done
    -Multiple select for type also coming soon

    Don't think it quite works right. Mines coming up with Otago in the North Island and Waikato in the South Island.

    And the thumbnails make it load so slow ><

    I really like it.

    It would be nice if it had a paged version so that it loaded a little bit quicker. Thanks

    Unfortunately that would mean you can't filter the results live the way it's being done at the moment, can do smaller chunks on one page but loading data from the server that quickly would be a little bit more complicated.. will see though.
