Description Chris Austin CLA 2010-09-14 10:57:28 EDT
When a criteria filter is applied, it can be unintentionally removed by searching for something that has 0 hits.  For example, in the User Assistance Test suite, you do a subsearch on a topic that has 2 children (page t, page k).  If you mistype your search and press ok in the dialog, 0 topics will come up.  Type your search correctly, and then 5 topics will come up (instead of the 2 we expect).  The filter is no longer applied.
