    [bug?]Zoom overwritting hardcoded in template

    I am using the CGI version of Zoom and just customized my template to try and get the search results to look like the reset of my site but it seams that Zoom is overwridding some of the template code. In my code I have a few lines before the tag to customize the look

    Code:
    <td class="bordercenter" width="650px"><table border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="submenuinfo">
    When I plcae the to make the code look like this:

    Code:
    <td class="bordercenter" width="650px"><table border="0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td class="submenuinfo">
    My <tr> and <td> tags are removed by zoom. If I please the tag on it's own line after the <td> then everything works. So I am thinking there is some odd bug in the CGI version.

    I had to put some td and table tags around the results on my page.

    Here's a snippet.

    Code:
    <td width="100%" valign="top">
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
   <p class="bodytext">
   Enter one or more keywords to search the website.

   Note that '*' and '?' wildcards are supported.
   </p>
   
</table>
</td>

      I do not understand what that has to do with my issue. I already have the <td> tages in place. If I add more it would break the xHTML complincy of the page.

        If you could post the entire code from your search_template.html (not the view source from the browser) or point us to the search engine on your site (if public) that would be a great deal of help.

          If I move to it's own line in the code it fixes this problem.

            Yes, that is required. The default "search_template.html" file specifically states that the comment needs to be on a line of its own.

            Code:
            <!-- 
The ZOOMSEARCH tag below marks the place where your search form and search results will be inserted when you run the search script. By default, you do not need to place a search form here, the search script will generate one and display it before the search results. Also note that the ZOOMSEARCH tag should be on a seperate line of its own.

              How odd, there was no comments in my first search_template file. O well.

                The comment is in the default search template, unless it was modified (eg. loaded into a HTML editor which has "strip comments" options enabled). Or of course, you may have removed it yourself unknowingly. We realize it's pretty easy for people to ignore HTML comments, so we'll make some more prominent mention of this in the Users Guide for a future update.

                  That might be a good idea, I have a bad tendincy of striping all code from templates before moding them to match my site so I could have missed it to.
