Actually on cloder examination the above search gives me unexpected
results but I'm not sure why. The below however does work but I can't
see why Eric's version gives odd results.
<form action="[area search]" method=post>
<input type=hidden name=mv_session_id value="[data session id]">
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_searchtype VALUE=text>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_matchlimit VALUE=[control matches 25]>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_sort_field VALUE=category>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_column_op VALUE=rm>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_case VALUE=no>
<INPUT TYPE=hidden NAME=mv_substring_match VALUE=yes>
[input-filter name=mv_searchspec op=word][/input-filter]
<input type=text name=mv_searchspec size="10">
<input type="image" alt="Search Go" border="0"
src="__THEME_IMG_DIR__go.gif">
</form>
I want to do a search for the filtered OR unfilterd search spec and I
think that would be easier using Eric's format.
