I would like to filter my object list based on conditions using select  
helpers. For example, get all the reciepts for user1 between jan and  
mar of 2007. Or, just get all the reciepts for user1. Is there a  
plugin or tutorial on how to implement this in a RESTful app? I dont  
need to do full text searches. Any help to point me in the right  
condition would be great.
