Claudia Kosny	Tuesday 14 November 2006 1:13:32 pm Hi Jorge This seems to be a common problem when PHP is running in CGI mode (e.g. check http://issues.ez.no/3693 ) You have two options: - get rid of the first question mark, which seems to done by setting EZ up in virtual host mode (not sure as I've never had this problem) - get rid of the second question mark by always using post instead of get If only the search functionality causes this problem I just would change the form from get to post. As far as I know you don't need to change any kernel code as the content/search.php uses the function hasVariable() which does check both post and get (I hope). Good luck Claudia

I have a site hosted at www.siteground.com . the code generated for the pages are like this:
http://www.hotel-saratoga.com/index.php?/eng/content/view/full/71

Notice the “?” sign

All pages work fine, but when it comes to the search page:

http://www.hotel-saratoga.com/index.php?/eng/content/search?SearchText=hotel&x=11&y=15

The sign “?” appears two times

It doesn’t work at all

Q: How to patch the URL of the search page to something ez understands, I cannot change the way the Hosting provider generates the URL. If someone could point out where and how to make the patch. Is there a work around with URL translation?

Hi Jorge

This seems to be a common problem when PHP is running in CGI mode (e.g. check http://issues.ez.no/3693 )
You have two options:
- get rid of the first question mark, which seems to done by setting EZ up in virtual host mode (not sure as I've never had this problem)
- get rid of the second question mark by always using post instead of get

If only the search functionality causes this problem I just would change the form from get to post. As far as I know you don't need to change any kernel code as the content/search.php uses the function hasVariable() which does check both post and get (I hope).

Good luck

Hi,

If you are really using php in cgi, I'd suggest to find a provider that either provide mod_php or fastcgi (needs some tuning on the server, but works fine). It will run quicker.
