#4 Enter key not working correctly in search

[Alex]

When pressing Enter instead of clicking the search
button in any search textbox, no results get returned. If
the search is performed by clicking on the button, results
are returned correctly.

I am running PHP 5.02, IE 6

By the way, now that I have Opera and Firefox running with
phpcc, I noticed that this only happens in IE. Opera and
Firefox correctly return the search results.

This issue is conformed. When a user submits the search
form by right-clicking on the submit button several piece of
information as send to the sever via post. File “search.php”
confirmed user is submitting information be checking the value
of variable “submit”. If a value is set, the form values used as
input and search is preformed. In the case where the submit
variable is not set, a blank search form is sent to user. Some
browsers (Internet Explorer) do not send the submit value
when submitting a form via keyboard Enter key. As a result,
phpcc ignores any submitted values without the submit value
being set.

The issue may be resolved by make a change in file “search.
php”, as follows:
Find line:
if ((!$_POST['submit']) && (!$_GET['num_results'])) {
Replace line with:
if ((!$_POST['searchtype']) && (!$_GET['num_results'])) {

The change will check if form is submitted by check the value
of variable “searchtype”, witch is sent at all times when
submitting search for in any browser by method of mouse or
keyboard. Note that “searchtype” is a hidden form element
and currently unused.
