Passing information from a form to a view

Passing information from a form to a view

A user enters their email address and selects several vendor types from a list of 10 different types. When they click Submit I want to open a view of the vendors that only shows the vendor type the user selected. On each row in the view I want a function that will email the users informatiopn to that vendor.

1) How to I pass multiple vendor types in the openurl command with an OR combination. That is show all records where type is 'baker' OR 'candle stick maker'.

2) When I'm on the view how do I access this users information. The original form is embedded in a website open to the general public so there is no login information.


Thanks
