Multiple form search in drupal.

Question

I created a website with ads and I would like to have a search form with multiple dropdown fields (i.e. price, type, etc.). The main title search form would be optional. How can I aachieve this using Views? Or maybe it is better to use some module? Any help appreciated.

If you want to do it with Views, which is probably the easiest way, you need to use exposed_filters. Lullabot have made an excellent guide for Drupal 5, a few things are have changed in Drupal 6, like you don't need fast search anymore and the UI is a bit different, but the principals are the same.
