It may be that the module requires Joomla's legacy plugin to be published--let me know whether or not that fixes the problem for you.

I need more information as to the nature of the error.

What is the URL of the page that loads after you click the "Search" button? What should appear on that page but does not?

I will try to convert the module to be a Joomla 1.5 native module so it doesn't require the legacy plugin.

You can set the Age/birthday fieldname configuration parameter in "Administrator - Modules - Age Range Search Module" to the name of your "price" field.

But to search by town or state, you will have to change the PHP code so that it gets a list of towns and states out of the database ('SELECT DISTINCT cb_town FROM jos_comprofiler_fields') and displays them in a select box, then make it so when the form submits it creates a URL which is identical to the URL created when you create a search using Community Builder's own search form. This is complicated enough that I can't explain it sufficiently here, and you will have to learn what you need from other sources.

> and also i want to access data from database how do i do that.

Take a look at the database queries in the PHP code for an example.
