Custom Serach fields

   Is it possible to have a custom search field with more than one value selected for a product?
When I try to add a second value to a custom search field at the product level ProductCart changes the first value I entered to the new one and doesn't appear to let me add a second value.
I want to create a drill down menu like you see on eBay where you can limit your search for example, to only computers with i3 and i5 processors. 
Thanks for your help
Abbey

	You have identified a limitation in that feature. Let's say you have a dress that is black and red. The custom search features might be used to filter colors - you can assign red, or you can assign black, but you cannot assign both. At least not without customizing the code...

	Thanks for the reply It's a little disappointing to discover that it is a limitation. I believe there would be many cases where more than one value could apply. I suppose I'll have to find another way.

	I do agree
