Search box not searching capitalized product name/model number

Hi Zen Cart,

I recently installed a fresh copy of Zen Cart (version 1.3.8a) on Blue Host. I added a few products with its model number, however, when I search for the product, it does not show up, unless I changed the name to all lower case.

I never experienced such strange problem before with Zen Cart on other server, could this be a database issue?

Your help is much appreciated.

Re: Search box not searching capitalized product name/model number

Capitalized searches should not make a difference at all. Both of my shops perform normal when doing capitalized searches.

My guess: corrupted file(s) or DB

NOTE: We are sorry that Frank is no longer with us.
We are grateful for all his contributions to the Zen Cart community.

Re: Search box not searching capitalized product name/model number

Thanks for your response frank18, it turns out, I installed the older version (1.3.8) via simple script and everything seems to work fine, so I assume something is wrong with the Zen Cart files Blue Host has..

If anyone else experience the same issue, I would recommend trying the same method by installing the previous Zen Cart version 1.3.8 instead of 1.3.8a (I believe it's called sp1) in simple script.

Anyway, thanks for trying to help :D
