Default valid GAL entry

every time I try to put in key words, GAL say You must enter a comma seperated list of keywords for a valid GAL entry.

I put the dum little comma, I even try to put a space before the comma. am i missing something?

Great, now it lets me enter the key words.
but when searching that category for that key word I get this.
nc, NC are the key words that i enter. I was hoping that people can our guys using the state or zip code. Let me know if I am asking too much of this program.

I think thats a vB limitation. For one, I think you can ditch the comman during the search... vB will look for all occurences of nc regardless of capitalization just by searching for nc.
Secondly, vb usually will not index words less than 4 characters unless you change its settings. Therefore it wont find nc anyway. Finally, if you are using full text search, you would need to change the minimum character count in mysql to 2 in order for mysql to find nc. Saying that, its not a good idea as it can really bloat things up and slow down searches.

HTHs!

GAL wont have caused the invalid URL error, that will be something else most likely with GARS configuration.

Do you have the word Hi GALed? Or do you have a blank GAL 'ed? Or an HTML tntity liek <strong>?
