Details

It might be nice if Search.pm returned an $sth handle that could be executed.

Of course, it would then also have to return an array of values to fill in the
placeholders... Maybe I'll have to think about this a bit.
Actually, making it use placeholders would be an improvment.

I think it would also be interesting to look at the Query.pm module that Sean
attached as part of attachment 171799 [details] on bug 91037 (which looks like a wholly-OO
Search.pm).

You might want to take a look at Testopia::Search.pm and Testopia::Table.pm. They are pretty hackish and ugly but they may give you ideas. This is an area I have wanted to see cleaned up in Bugzilla for ages. I'd be willing to help out with this.
