Search bug with questionmark

[Warz]

Hello,

I tried this not only with my own directory but others. When I search for something with question mark added to the end I get loads of errors.

Example on search: internet ?

Result: A list with link which can't be clicked on, and this error message:

Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 16 in /home/mysite/public_html/lib/link.class.php on line 960

Warning: preg_replace() [function.preg-replace]: Compilation failed: nothing to repeat at offset 16 in /home/mysite/public_html/lib/link.class.php on line 961

No errors on my installation. Mine displays

Nothing found for keyword "internet ?".

You need to have it in the database. If one of your links has title "Internet?", maybe also only if the title is "Internet", but you make a search using ?

Nothing found for keyword "internet ?".

Guaranteed this site doesn't have "internet ?" in any of it's listings, it's a recipe site.

This is an error on your site, and not a bug. Also note that those are NOT errors, they are warnings. Most likely you are running IndexU on a PHP5 server.

You can add the following to application.php and /admin_tpl/application.cfg.php to remove warning messages

error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

Note - not a bug, moved to appropriate forum

It's not just "internet?" it could be, for my site it's when I search for the movie called "are we done yet?". When searching with the question mark it happens. "Internet?" was just an example. It could be anything else "Example?".

Anyways thanks for the tips.

Search Result

Nothing found for keyword "yet?"
Nothing found for keyword "crackho?"
Nothing found for keyword "snuffalupagus?"

All the above searches do not produce any warnings on my sites. It is, as I said, probably a PHP5 issue.

Then you don't have it in the db, when I search for "titleonlink?" I get several results. All of them which is impossible to click because the title is missing. Try to add a website for example:
Title: nicecoder?
url: http://www.nicecoder.com

Then search for "nicecoder?"

Anyway might be a PHP5 issue, no problem I'll just use your fix

I added a listing with the title test? and I performed a search for "test?"

Your search for keyword "test?" returned 0 categories and 1 recipes.

It works just fine.
