Here's a break down of what they did...
================================
$tmp=strstr($QUERY_STRING, "XCARTSESSID=");
// Find the xcart session ID in the search string

if (!empty($tmp))
// If the session ID is found do the following

$QUERY_STRING=ereg_replace("XCARTSESSID=([0-9a-zA-Z]*)", "", $QUERY_STRING);
// Strip out the xcart session ID and its value then replace it with nothing, then set $QUERY_STRING equal to the resulting value

if(!empty($QUERY_STRING)) {
// if the resulting value is not empty then do the following
================================

They then just bipassed all that with:
================================
if(isset($substring)) {
// if you have a substring (the value submitted by the form) then run the following code
================================

Weird thing is, that the code they stripped out is in my search.php file and it works well.

Hope that's clear!

guytje,

It's been while since a post was made here, but I thought I would let you know that I turned off the session ID's on my site and ended up using your code mod from the x-cart team to fix my search as well.

What comes around goes around, I guess.
