It sounds like this may be the same thing I entered a bug for last night:

I'm having a problem with the search form working with categories. maybe
I'm looking in the wrong place, but it seems the Velocimacros don't
work. in WEB-INF/velocity/weblog.vm, the macro showWeblogSearchForm (and
the searchagainform) has this method code:
(Roller 3.0, Tomcat 5.5.12, JRE 1.5.0)
#**
Show search form for a weblog.
*#
#macro(showWeblogSearchForm $weblog $showCatChooser)
<form id="searchForm" method="get" action="$url.search"
style="margin: 0; padding: 0" onsubmit="return
validateSearch(this)">
<p>
<input type="text" id="q" name="q" size="10"
maxlength="255" value="#if($model.term)$model.term#end" />
#if( $showCatChooser )
#set( $cats = $model.weblog.getWeblogCategories("nil") )
<select name="cat">
<option value="">- In Category -</option>
#foreach( $cat in $cats )
<option #if($cat.name ==
$model.term)selected="selected"#end>$cat.name</option>
#end
</select>
#end
<input type="submit" value="$text.get(
"macro.weblog.searchbutton" )" />
</p>
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
function validateSearch(form) {
if (form.q.value == "") {
alert("$text.get("macro.weblog.searchalert")");
form.q.focus();
return false;
}
return true;
}
</script>
#end
now when this renders the list of categories, it tries to find the
selected one by matching each category name against $model.term. but
$model.term is the search term itself, not the category. and if you
search for a category name, that is picked up and selected.
is this a bug, or am I looking in the wrong place?
I can't find any reference to this $model.term in the template
documentation, or how to access the category chosen.
cheers
