[Web4lib] library catalog search from off server web page- help

[John Hubbard]

Lisa,

Looking at the form on the catalog page, I see there's a lot of fields 
that aren't included on your test page. This is fine for ones with an 
empty default value, but I believe adding this one to the test form:

<input type="hidden" name="SORT" value="D" />

should fix your interesting results.

HTH,
- John
