For sale ads

[dern]

Would it be possible to have an option where you can order the for sale ads you are viewing by posting date as well as by model/make?

For those of us with money burning a hole in our pockets it would be great to look at all ads posted in the last 24 hours ordered by time, most recent first.

Just an idea.

If you're tinkering, how about ordered/searched by price across one or more categories? i.e. if I have a budget of 'X', what could I buy...

Ok, think I follow what you're saying. This:

www.pistonheads.com/sales/index.asp?age=1

goes some way there but a simple list would be good too as you say.

You can. Use:

www.pistonheads.com/sales/search.asp

and select one of more categories (hold down ctrl and select the ones you want). Then enter the min and max prices.

I tend to look at the last 24 hours list about 20 times a day at the moment because I've just sold my last car and my wife hasn't found the money yet . Having a list with the cars that have been added since I last looked highlighted in some way (in the same way as the gassing station highlights threads that have been modified since I last looked) or ordered by time would be quite useful.

Yep, understood. I'll weave that in next time I'm working on that part of the site.

Brilliant, thanks very much

Thanks...although it seems to have a couple of glitches:
i) some hidden limit to number of categories you can select - too many and nothing happens.
ii) you can't click on the 'more info' link in retrieved ads; says "oops - invalid category"

p.s. (i) could be me - IE just bombed out on me

Ok, thanks for the feedback. Must admit I did rush that job!
