[FX.php List] Lasso equivalent in php/fx.php

[Chris Hansen]

Nick,

Thanks for the code.  This is actually what I was talking about...   
I'm guessing that the page searches on Agency, Location, and County?   
At any rate, the simplest way to do things would be with AddDBParam 
(), however you could also step through the $_POST array and grab the  
fields you are interested in that way (looping over a single  
AddDBParam() call with variables as parameters).  How would you  
prefer things work?  Do you have a very large number of parameters  
that you're trying to work with?

Best,
