Search function is a bit crazy

I get the following when I search, but not all of the time.

Quote:

Content Encoding Error

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because it uses an invalid or unsupported form of compression.

* Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.

There is also this repetitive message that goes on for literally hundreds of lines on the page. The search results do eventually come up, though.

Quote:

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in [path]/includes/sphinx.php on line 145

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in [path]/includes/sphinx.php on line 145

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in [path]/includes/sphinx.php on line 145

And on, and on, and on.

Oh, that repeating warning shouldn't be happening any more.

I had turned on visible errors in a futile attempt to try to debug something else.

I'm not sure about the content encoding error, though. That looks like a web browser error, not something php would have coughed up. Let me know if you see it again, and the search terms you were using.

On second thought, now that I think about it, those warnings themselves may have been triggering that first error, because they were probably sent before the rest of the page, when compression wasn't set up yet.

Nope. The search went straight through.

Thanks,
