I used CCK to create a content type (called 'meetings', made up of 'day', 'city', 'address', 'time' and 'focus' fields, where 'day' and 'city' are multi-select from a drop down).

Then I created a view, filtered just to show meeting content type records. So far, so good.

But I wanted the viewer to be able to select just one (or more) city and just one (or more) day, and get a filtered list. Check out http://www.sacvalleyoa.org/svmlist.htm to see how it *should* work.

So I added two more filters, made them exposed, and deleted them again (leaving the exposed bits still enabled). The view page looks as if it will work but regardless of what you select as filters, nothing happens. Check http://www.chosendisc.com/?q=views/meetings to see it not working!

So what did I do wrong?

I think that may be the problem.

The first time I tried to configure the view, I seem to remember it was asking me to supply a value for the filter during configuration but I only wanted the value to be requested at runtime, so I exposed it and deleted it.

But this time I selected all the choices from the drop-down (as configuration values for the filter) and it worked!!!

Although I've had 40 years experience of programming, and a couple of years experience of web design, I'm only about 6 days old in Drupal, so excuse my blunders.

Thank you again.
