Here is my sample code for you. Your code should depends on your needs, query may joins with another table, or instead of LIKE you can use MATCH...AGAINST for more accuracy result. This code depends on each parameter that user enter for making a final query.

//In DbTable
public function search($params)
{
    $query = $this->select()
                   ->from(
                    array('tbl'=>'table'),
                    array('name','city','zipcode','type')
                    );
    $query = $this->_makeParams($query,$params);
    return $this->fetchAll($query);
}

private function _makeParams($query, $params)
{
    $name = isset($params['name']) ? trim($params['name']) : '';
    $city = isset($params['city']) ? trim($params['city']) : '';
    $zipcode = isset($params['zipcode']) ? trim($params['zipcode']) : '';
    $type = isset($params['type']) ? trim($params['type']) : '';

    if($name!='')
    {
        $name = '%'.$this->quote($name).'%';//quote is my own function
        $query->where("tbl.name LIKE '?'",$name); 
    }

    if($city!='')
    {
        $query->where("tbl.city=?",$city);
    }

    if($zipcode!='')
    {
        $query->where("tbl.zipcode=?",$zipcode);
    }

    if($type!='')
    {
        $query->where("tbl.type=?",$type);
    }

    return $query;

}
