[Mediawiki-l] Categories as search filters for a Refined/Advanced Search Tool

[Roger Chrisman]

Hi,

I want to allow users to filter searches of a Mediawiki's content so 
that search results that match user-selected categories *and* the 
search term would be returned.

For example, along with the standard search box (text field for search 
term) a user could be presented with a treed list of all categories 
with check boxes by them. Only when a category's check box is checked 
by the user for a given "advanced/category-filtered" search would 
content in that category be searched. User could select ***as many or 
few categories*** as he likes and the search tool would search only 
within those categories.

Has anyone seen anything like this implemented for Mediawiki? Or for any 
other content management system?

Thanks, 

Roger
