Search term truncated in results page button links

djspecialist

I just found an odd bug with the forum search:

If you search for a term that has more than one word and the first starts with "p", then the "p" is removed when you use the "jump to results page" buttons at the top of the results.

For example, searching for "pitch fork" yields over 1000 results:
http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=pitch+fork

But the page 1, 2 etc buttons have the following links:
http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=itch+fork&pg=1
http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=itch+fork&pg=2

If you change the search term to "snitch fork", the page links work correctly:
http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=snitch+fork
http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=snitch+fork&pg=1
http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=snitch+fork&pg=2

I tried a few other searches and "p" seems to be the magic letter - but I confess I didn't try all 26

I also found a workaround: prepend the search term with a space (e.g. " pitch fork") - then you get

http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=+pitch+fork&pg=1
http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/search?Search=+pitch+fork&pg=2

Same here. It's a very odd bug, but it's consistent.

If only that was the only thing wrong with the search function...
