Search/Filter Modules - Can we treat individual field values differently?

[Matthew Bayliss]

We want to create either a search module or an advanced filter for a project but we're struggling a bit figuring out how to get it to return the results we need. Probably easiest if I give an example:

Lets say on a dog breed site we have a field for "needs garden" that has two options: Yes / No

We want the user to be able to select whether or not they have a garden to filter the results to only show suitable breeds.

The problem is that a dog that doesn't need a garden could still live in a house that has one. Therefore we don't want to exclude dogs that don't need gardens from searches made by users who have a garden. 

Basically this is what we're trying to achieve:

• If a user selects they don't have a garden (ie: Garden: No) then it should only show breeds that have the No value for that field.
• If a user selects that they have a garden (ie: Garden: Yes) then ideally it would show breeds that have either Yes or No for that field.

Is this possible?
