Hi!

I'm building an application where I have products and categories. Category has_many properties and each property has a list of possible values. After a category is set to the product all properties show up in the form and the user can set that property to one of the properties possible values.

My question is:

Is it possible for Thinking Sphinx to filter the products through a property and property value ex:

:with => {:property_id => property_value}

If it's possible, what is the best way to implement this? If not is there any other library out there to solve this problem?

Thanks

/ Ola
