Notes
search_{$field}
The available values for {$field} are dependent on the adtool type being searched for. for instance, FHGs have a 'type' field, with the possible values 1(pictures) 2(videos) 3(mixed) .
search_type = '5:2'
Is a limit on this type field. 5 means = (see below) and 2 is the value we are limiting to. This returns any adtools adtoolfield type=2 For FHGs, this means videos.
search_type = '4:2'
Would search for adtools with type <= 2. For FHGs that returns pictures and videos (but not mixed).
search_width = '1:50'
Searches for an adtools with width > 50
You can get the exact field names and possible values from the adtools admin (edit type) or by doing a search on the affiliate side and using the search[] variables from the resulting URL.
