hooter,

Thanks for the info. I downloaded it and made the adjustments to search.php as indicated in their accompanying text file.

It seems to work okay for some single words against the product title. But for multiple words as in:

http://www.<sitename>.com/store/search.php?search=Wind+Chimes

It produces inconsistent results. I suspect it has something to do with which fields are being searched but have not yet been able to pinpoint what combinations work. I also noted that for each failed search, the search screen is displayed and the option to search additional fields (short description and full descruption) by checking the corresponding boxes becomes available with the search term pre-populated. This yielded better results but then requires other than a single click interaction from the Customer.

Are you aware of a way to ensure that all fields [title, shortdescr, fulldescr] get searched when feed the search term as above?

Thanks again for your help.
