Hi Jerome,
This might be a primitive solution and I haven't tried it, but maybe
you could have several WOAnyFields in the component and hide all but
one in conditionals until the + button is clicked. The + button in
each one would expose the next WOAnyField below it. You'd have a
limited number (say 5) of fields on the page, but it might work out
for 95% of the cases. There's probably a nice Ajaxy way to do this
with the buttons and exposed parts of the page.
Another way to go might be to have a concatenated field in your
database (a derived attribute in EOF) of all your possible fields and
use one "Simple Search" field that accesses all the fields. It
doesn't provide as specific a filtered set as your solution, but
again, it might satisfy the majority of your users.

I want to create a dynamic search list like iTunes Smart List.
Is it possible to use several WOAnyFields to change what is
displayed for a WODisplayGroup?
+ - [name] [contains] xxx
+ - [name [ends] zzz
+ - [age] [greater] 30
Where clicking on the + button will add a new search field and
clicking on the - button will delete the selected search field.
Or do I have to create my own component?
