I have a suggestion about "advanced search", how can I contact the website to give them my idea?
my idea anyway, as you know you can search movies by genre, let's say you searched "Comedy" genre, you will get all comedy movies, some of these movies are listed as "comedy" and some of them are listed as "comedy - drama" and some of them are listed as "action - comedy" ... etc
what I want is to be able to exclude some genres from being showed with the results, for example I want to get "comedy" movies and I want to exclude "action" genre, so when I search I don't want to get any movie listed as "action - comedy", I just want the movies listed as "comedy"
I hope that my idea is clear (:

See previous discussion:

Which would give us:

Which would give us:
http://www.imdb.com/search/title?genres=comedy&!genres=action,animation&sort=num_votesSo, do you know any solution to my problem?

Not that I'm aware of.
I think vertical bar can help here
see:
vs comma:
http://www.imdb.com/search/title?genres=comedy&!genres=action|animation&sort=num_votesvs comma:
http://www.imdb.com/search/title?genres=comedy&!genres=action,animation&sort=num_votes(Edited)
Thanks Andrea Castillo

As to suggesting ideas to the site, you'd post on this forum. It has four categories. "Ask A Question," "Share and Idea," "Report a Problem" and "Give Praise." You posted on the default category, but if you'd have clicked into the "Share an Idea" it would let you suggest an idea and allow other users who agree to vote for it, giving the site an idea of how popular an idea it is.
Here's an example of one suggested and implemented as a result. https://getsatisfaction.com/imdb/topi...

Is there any way I can change the category after i wrote the topic?
Dan Dassow, Champion
Unfortunately, once someone reply to your original post, you Get Satisfaction will not allow you to change the post or category of the post.
Dan Dassow can I delete my topic?
Dan Dassow, Champion
I did not completely answer your question. A poster cannot delete at post one someone replies to it. Only IMDb staff members can delete posts with responses on IMDb's Get Satisfaction site. I am only another user and have not administrative rights.

If I really want to show the full URL on Get Satisfaction, I will either use "pre" and repeat the link or use the "a" tag.
Using "pre"
http://www.imdb.com/search/title?at=0&genres=comedy&!genres=action&sort=num_votes
Using "a" tag
http://www.imdb.com/search/title?at=0&genres=comedy&!genres=action&sort=num_votes
