Another scary bug??

[Bob Sneidar]

Here's a nice little twist! This works if the arguements for itemOffset come from fields. it only breaks if you hard code them (or in my case pull the values from a database. I am willing to bet a nice steak dinner this is being caused by uniCode. The engine is probably expecting to search for unicode values and instead is finding UTF8 (or whatever it is).

Unfortunately I need wholeMatches because contacttypes can be IT or SITES among other things and replacing IT in contacttypes will result in SE instead of SITE. I am working around it but this can bite someone in the arse hard if they are not carefule.
