Hi all,

can anyone explain why the following ActionMap doesn't work properly?

ActionMap  cat  <<EOR
sub {
        my ($action, $category) = split ('/', shift);
        $CGI->{mv_todo} ='search';
        $CGI->{mv_nextpage} = 'results';
        $CGI->{mv_search_file} = 'products';
        $CGI->{mv_searchtype} = 'db';
        $CGI->{mv_coordinate} = 'yes';
        $CGI->{mv_return_fields} = 'sku';
        $CGI->{mv_matchlimit} = '10';
        $CGI->{mv_sort_field} = 'manufacturer,price';
        $CGI->{mv_sort_option} = 'f,n';
        $CGI->{mv_search_field} = 'category';
        $CGI->{mv_search_field} = 'inactive';
        $CGI->{mv_column_op} = 'rm';
        $CGI->{mv_column_op} = 'ne';
        $CGI->{mv_searchspec} = "$category";
        $CGI->{mv_searchspec} = '1';
        $CGI->{banner_text} = "$category";
        $Tag->update('process');
        return 1;
}
EOR

If I call <BASE_URL>/cat/Category1 it should return all active products in
Category1, but it returns every product in the database.

If I reverse the order of the two search terms or strip out the "inactive ne
1" search then it works fine. The same search also works fine as a oneclick
search, so I'm thinking there might be something special about stacking in
perl subroutines.
