The real reason is that we consider those carriage returns (and every other letter in there, including and . and -, etc.) to be important -- so you can search for those special characters. So WebCatalog thinks you're trying to literally search for a carriage return.I suppose you could put some 'throwaway' variables in there to help break things up a bit:[search db=xx.db& dummy=&eqnamedata=fred& dummy=&wodescriptiondata=porsche]So WebCatalog thinks there's a couple of
dummy= variables which it ignores.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
