Filter webpart sharepoint 2007

Question

Hi I need to add filters on search results page in sharepoint 2007, Please guide how to do that.

My requirement is quite similar to Filter webpart on the Search Page Thanks in advance

Answer 1

I have two date picker web parts (start and end date) and a list view (XsltListViewWebPart).
After I create parameters for the form values and add a filter on the two fields (date<=end date & date>=start date), I am able to successfully filter the listview so that it displays only dates within the start and end dates but when i click any item, the view and edit options on the ribbon are grayed out. I've tried everything I can think of, including deleting and recreating the view, or simply creating a new view, but as soon as i add the filters, the whole list because read-only. Hhas any seen and found a way around this?
