failed quick search example

As you can see from the image above, I have a quick search defined for 'am' which is set as a 'keyword' for an Amazon.com search. When I type the keyword followed by a search term it it displays an error page with a path to some resource in a .jar file.

Note the save URL does not include a %s. It used the previously document behavior of having any text that followed the keyword appended to the keyword URL.

When I add the %s to the end of the saved quick search URL, the quick search works correctly. This change confused me for a while until I dug into it and now I need to check and update all of my quick searches. :-(
