Hi

I'm fine-tuning my blog and I've installed Adam's excellent PlugIn (thanks a
lot, btw) about a month ago. So far it's been running smoothly using the
"keyword" method and getting the search string from the category description
field. That's pretty neat!

But now I'm using categories and/or articles that require a little more
fine-tuning within the amazon search and the "power"-method seemed to be
just what I needed. BUT: Even using very simple and static search strings
(without using the CatDescription field) like this one...

<MTAmazon method="Power" search="subject: history or military"
line="books">...</MTAmazon>

...I won't get any results! I've also emptied my amazoncache directory, to
be sure. Still nothing. Any ideas, anyone? I'd really appreciate any hints
you can give me!

Cheers,
Christian
