Search error
Hi.
I am hoping someone can tell me where I am going wrong with this.

This is the link to my search component:
http://www.yourhome4.com/cgi-bin/links/search.cgi

If you do a search on something, like say "Java", there is more than one page of results returned. The output looks like:

"Your search returned x categories and xx links.

Pages: 1 2 [>>]"

When I click on the second page, I get a "Page Not Found" error for this URL:

http://www.yourhome4.com/cgi-bin/links/links/search.cgi?query=java&mh=25&type=keyword&bool=and&nh=2

Now I have seen mention of a search span mod, but have not seen a definitive link to it or a description of what it does, though I have searched the forums.

The Links2 demo on G-T has multi-page results with the same type of output as mine that work just fine and I am guessing that the demo is not modified.

I have also seen the AltaVista category span mod, but I don't care about span's in categories. I have also seen the AltaVista search mod, but I don't need to add AV to my database search, unless it also modifies the search.cgi to allow search spans to function properly. In which case, if the AV search mod is the only way to get this to work, is there a modified version to just allow search spans without AV?

Anyone care to give me a helpful shove in the right direction?

Everything else I have tested thus far seems to work.

TIA

Pete
