Difference between #2 and #1 of Filter / Search with CListView

(This is my first post, so be forgiveful!)

This is what I did. Its the EASIEST  solution that I know of. I just reused the
advanced search done in CGridView. 

<b>In my controller file</b>



~~~
[php]
public function actionIndex()
	{
            
                $model=new{
    $model=new Blogs('search');
		$model->unsetAttributes();
    $model->unsetAttributes();  // clear any default values
		if(isset($_GET['Blogs']))
			$model->attributes=$_GET['Blogs'];
    if(isset($_GET['Blogs']))
        $model->attributes=$_GET['Blogs'];

		  $this->render('index',array('dataProvider'=>$model->search(),
'model'=>$model)); //send    //send model object for
search
            }
    $this->render('index',array(
        'dataProvider'=>$model->search(),
        'model'=>$model)
    ); 
}
~~~



<b>In my view file</b> (namely my index file)


~~~
[php]
<?php
$this->breadcrumbs=array(
	'Blogs',    'Blogs',
);

$this->menu=array(
	array('label'=>'Create    array('label'=>'Create
Blogs', 'url'=>array('create')),
	array('label'=>'Search
    array('label'=>'Search Blogs', 'url'=>array('admin')),
);
Yii::app()->clientScript->registerScript('search', "
$('.search-button').click(function(){
	$('.search-form').toggle();
	return    $('.search-form').toggle();
    return false;
});
$('.search-form form').submit(function(){
	 $.fn.yiiListView.update('blogslistview',   
$.fn.yiiListView.update('blogslistview', { //this
        //this entire js section is taken from admin.php. w/only this line
diff
		data:
        data: $(this).serialize()
	});
	return
    });
    return false;
});
");
?>

<h1>Blogs</h1>

<?php echo CHtml::link('Advanced
Search','#',array('class'=>'search-button')); ?>
<div class="search-form" style="display:none">
<?php  $this->renderPartial('_search',array(
	'model'=>$model,    'model'=>$model,
)); ?>
</div>

<?php $this->widget('zii.widgets.CListView', array(
	'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
	'itemView'=>'_view',
       'id'=>'blogslistview',             //must   
'dataProvider'=>$dataProvider,
    'itemView'=>'_view',
    'id'=>'blogslistview',       // must have id corresponding to js
above
       'sortableAttributes'=>array(
    'sortableAttributes'=>array(
        'id',
        'startdate',
           'enddate',
           'user_id','enddate',
        'user_id',
    ),
)); 
?>
