I would like to create a view that returns results based on an OR relationship between the arguments i.e. if I have a view that returns nodes that have a field "ID' and I send in the arguments 'foo' and 'bar', the view should return any node with 'foo' OR 'bar' in the field ID.

Having read the prior support requests, I understand that this is not going to be standard functionality anytime soon but since I have a very specific situation, I would like to know if there are any hacks I can employ to get this result. It does not need to be pretty or work for every situation, I just need it to work for the use case I have described above.

Thanks

In general this will probably only work with creating some custom code :(

To be able to achieve this you could perhaps do several things, for example use hook_views_query_alter and change the AND between the two arguments to an OR. The probably more clean version would be some argument handlers which work together but i think this is probably hard.
