I pushed my work. I have added a new file tbl_zoom_select.php which contains
the interface. I tried to code everything in tbl_search page but the code
becomes very complicated and I had to use a lot of If/else conditions, so i
think it will become even more complicated when I'll experiment with
plotting libraries.
With a new form its better to switch between the normal table search and
zoom search forms without using jQuery.
Also, in this form a user can select two same columns but with different
search criteria (for example, a film with rating G and a film with rating
PG-13) so the query generation for this case cannot be handled in
tbl_select.php. It generates a wrong query, so the query generation part of
this interface also works a bit differently. It generates two queries, one
for each column criteria. I know some code has to be duplicated, but I think
its better to develop it as a different component. Otherwise if there are
some modifications in the zoom-search part, a lot of changes have to be done
in the tbl_select.php page. Its just what I thought, I'll do the interface
again if code duplication is an issue.
