I have 6 fields in my search
Rather than have a seperate search form for Basic and Advance Search
I want only one field (drop list) is to be visible by default
When the user presses Advance Seach button - I want to expand the form and
display the
other five text boxes
I've created a UpdatePanel and moved both Search and Grid into it
But can't seem to get the 5 items to hide

So the panel containing the extra fields inside your updateable panel is hidden by default and a session is set when the user clicks something which it turn shows the hidden panel right?

You are using an updatepanel to have the Search and Grid interact instantly.
You need to add another (normal)panel, inside the search, put the five fields on that
and then hide show that panel based on your Advanced Search Button.
I might even substitute the Advanced Search Button by a simple checkbox.

Still in Thicko mode ....sorry, I'm not getting it ...
To simplify I have started with a NEW Saeach & Grid without the update Panel
Then just added a NORMAL panel
Moved the fields I want for the Advance search on to it and set the panel
Visible to NO
Then on my Advance Search Button OnClick event I have added the code
$equipmentSearch->Panel1->Visible = true;
This should work right??

No, it should not work like that.
You click the button, Custom Code executed, form is submitted.
Upon return, the form does not know about the custom code having set anything.
You want to set a variable that is posted and upon return still is set.
Add a checkbox, call it advanced search initialy unchecked.
Have the user check the box, OnClick Submit
The in the before Show, test if the checkbox is checked and let the panel have its visibility depend on that.

Already tried that
In panel1 beforeshow I have
if ($equipmentSearch->CheckBox1 == 1) {
$equipmentSearch->Panel1->Visible = true;
} else {
$equipmentSearch->Panel1->Visible = false;
}
CheckBox1 is set to Boolean and Checked value is 1 unchecked and default set
to 0
Also tried
if ($equipmentSearch->CheckBox1 ) {
$equipmentSearch->Panel1->Visible = true;
} else {
$equipmentSearch->Panel1->Visible = false;
}

why not use JavaScript for that? create the form with a div holding the advanced fields and use a hyper link to show or hide the fields? that way you do not need to go back to the server just to show a few fields.
I use this in a form where depending on a choice made in a drop down fileds are visible or not:
function hideMe()
{
if (document.all.apparaat_type.options[apparaat_type.selectedIndex].value=="6")
{
row1.style.display="";
row2.style.display="none";
}else {row1.style.display="none";}
if (document.all.apparaat_type.options[apparaat_type.selectedIndex].value=="7")
{
row1.style.display="none";
row2.style.display="";
}else {row2.style.display="none";}
}

read the above, then somewhere between the visible search and the invisible panel
add a checkbox, from the Form Toolbox.
Mouseselect the checkbox to see it's properties (defaultname CheckBox1)
Set
ControlSource to CodeExpression
Checked = 1
Unchecked =0
DefaultValue UnChecked
Switch to Checbox's Properties EventTab
Right click OnClick Event add Action Submit Form
Open the SearchForm's properties BeforeShow Event
if ($Component->CheckBox1->GetValue() == Checked)
$Component->Panel1->Visible = True;
else
$Component->Panel1->Visible = False;
This works, tested.
It might not be the most clean way to do it, but it does what you intended to do.
Remove the advanced search button and do the checkbox instead.
It is also possible to do the panel through JavaScript based on this checkbox scenario.
But I am busy as it is.
Walter
Aah, just noted the JS option is posted by RonB, thanks.

Great Wkempees
Works....after Ticking - I have to Submit a Search before it changes
(so the check box event is not firing even though I've done a Submit
OnClick)
I can live / play with that
But hey, Thanks very much for sorting this out - very much appreciated.

It is the OnClick Event of the checkBox,
that you add (richtclick Add Action) action "Submit Form" to.
Unless anything else on the search form is stopping the Submit, it should fire.
Any Validations failing?
But hey, you are happy as is, so change title to [Solved] and enjoy.
