    Creating a link that performs a search

    I have a number of threads that work as a group and that I would like to make available via a link as a body of threads. BUT, I dont want to pull or copy them from the forum they currently live in. Can I create a link that will search and return threads via their title. Let's say they're called "Meat Reviews". I would want to create a link that returned all threads with the title "Meat Reviews".... any ideas?

    Thanks,
    Peter

    I'm not sure if this will work, but give it a try:

    search.php?action=simplesearch&titleonly=1&query=Meat%20Reviews

    Edit: it's adding a space in meat, simply remove that.

      Thanks, that seemed like a good idea, but alas it returns no matches. Any edits to that command line that might work? I took out the title only part but that didn't help... Thanks for your help,
      Peter

      PS I think this could be really powerful. Admins could create "topical links" that would draw out information from a myriad of threads posts... Thnaks!
