Question on Stop Words
Hi, is it correct for me to say that all the banned words are contained in admin/GT/SQL/Search/Base/Common.pm? I am wondering though if these words directly affect the search.cgi script or just the indexing (I use internal), or both, I'm not sure.

I have two problems:

1. Say that I search for the word "in", and I get zero link results but several category results. To say the least, these aren't relevant results. How can I get around this? What I would like to happen is that when there are no link results, there won't be any kind of results at all. So, when I search for "in", I'll get the search error page instead.

2. When I search for "in europe", I get link results pertaining to europe while the word "in" is ignore via the banned words list. But, "in" is also in bold. How do I stop that from happening?

Thank you very much in advance.
