Search problem with the categories

Let me rephrase the post from below: It looks like the searchbox with category or region selector does not work. it does not matter if you have the selectors to something, the search just returns the keyword from the searchbox as if the selectors have no field selected. I tried this on the demo auction site at mewsoft.com with the keyword 'dvd'. Allways the item# 1137910670 popups.\ \ \ Hello,\ \ If I do a search on an Item within all categories and witin all regions I get a list of items. If I then change the categorie-search to a categorie where I am sure off that there are no items in this categorie with this name, the search still gives this itemlist.\ \ I first thought this had to do with Featured items, but this did not solve it. \ \ Then I tried it on your demo auction with the searchword 'dvd', at you demo site it also happens, dvd will popup the item with dvd itemnr:1137910670 also if I search it in the categorie antiques. It will always popup this item, with every categorie and with every region. Also This is not a featured item.\ \ Then I tried the classified demo, it looks like the problem does not exist here...\ \ Please inform what I am doing wrong or see this as a major bug.\ \ marcel.

Re: Search problem with the categories

Searching from the search box will include all the sub categories of the category you selected from the drop down not only the sub category that you selected.
