I am using Zen-Cart 1.3.8. This is an upgrade from 1.3.7. I have tested this in my custom template as well as the default template with the same results.

When I attempt to search for a specific word such as "hat" including the quotes, no search results are returned and my search string has been changed to \"hat\". If I continue to click search more escape characters are added, such as \\\\\"hat\"\\\\

When I search for two words in the same fashion such as "felt hat" no such problem occurs and the search works correctly.

This does not seem like normal behavior.

My Zen-Cart is located at http://www.homeforgoodfinds.org/

Thank you for your help.
