Search Results Loop error

[dZi]

I have 8 Test products all called Singing Bowl (#), like Singing Bowl 1, Singing Bowl 2, etc.

Sometimes they show up fine, with all my html in tact and no duplicate search results, and other times they show up almost fine except Singing Bowl 8 is duplicated at the end. And other times, all the HTML AFTER my Search Results Loop is cut off(biggest problem). All of this happens despite what I search for, at random. Here is the code:

[-- IF SEARCHTOP --]
<!-- START Top Search Result Form -->
<tr>
<td class="se_search_form"><table class="se_search_form">
<tbody>
<tr class="se_form_search_row">
<td colspan="4" class="se_form_term">[-- SEARCHRESULT_FORM FORM_ONLY --]</td>
</tr>
<tr class="se_form__sort_row">
<td class="se_form_sort">[-- SearchSortBy --]</td>
<td class="se_form_numresult">[-- SearchResultCount --]</td>
<td class="se_form_prevnext">[-- SearchPrevNext --]</td>
<td class="se_form_perpage">[-- SearchResultsPerPage --]</form></td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table></td>
</tr>
<!-- END Top Search Result Form -->
[-- END_IF --]
<h2 id="pageName">[--Store.SearchResults --]: [-- SearchString --]</h2><br><table border="0" cellpadding="5" width="95%"><tr>
<p>[-- LOOP SEARCH 8 --]<td>
[-- IF SEARCHLINK --]
<!--
[-- END_IF --]

[-- SEARCHRESULT --]</td>

[-- IF SEARCHLINK --]
-->
[-- END_IF --]
[-- END_LOOP SEARCH--] </tr>
<div class="text1">
[-- IF SEARCHTOP --]
<div class="searchResultForm">

</div>

</tr>

Why do you have multiple [-- LOOP SEARCH --] sections? You only need one on the page otherwise you will have the search results being displayed once for each [-- LOOP SEARCH --] section.

My Search Results page is working now that I took out the extra loop, but I always get this error:

searchtest [214]: Template Error: SEARCHPRODUCT not in LOOP_SEARCH loop
searchtest [226]: Template Error: SEARCHLINK not in LOOP_SEARCH loop

So I just want to take out those two tags all together, but then it skews my layout. Is there anyway I can take those out without messing up the layout, here is my Code:

<!-- END Top Search Result Form -->
[-- END_IF --]
<h2 id="pageName">[--Store.SearchResults --]: [-- SearchString --]</h2><br><table border="0" cellpadding="5" width="1000"><tr>
<p>[-- LOOP SEARCH 8 --]<td>
[-- IF SEARCHLINK --]
<!--
[-- END_IF --]

[-- SEARCHRESULT --]</td>

[-- IF SEARCHLINK --]
-->
[-- END_IF --]
[-- END_LOOP SEARCH--] </tr>
<div class="text1">
[-- IF SEARCHTOP --]
<div class="searchResultForm">

</div>
[-- END_IF --]

[-- VAR.anyresults "no" --]
[-- VAR.resultcount 0 --]
<table class="pa_products">
<tr>

[-- VAR.anyresults "yes" --]
[-- IF SEARCHPRODUCT --]
[-- IF VAR.resultcount VAR.pr_cols --]
</td></tr><tr>
[-- VAR.resultcount 0 --]
[-- END_IF --]
[-- IF VAR.resultcount 0 --]
<td class="pa_product">
[-- ELSE --]
</td><td class="pa_product">
[-- END_IF --]
[-- VAR.resultcount INC --]
[-- END_IF --]
[-- IF SEARCHLINK --]
<div class="searchResultLink">
[-- SEARCHRESULT --]
</div>
[-- ELSE --]
<div class="searchResultPage">
<div></div>
</div>
[-- END_IF --]

</td>
</tr>
</table>

[-- IF VAR.anyresults "no" --]
<h4>[-- Store.SearchNoResults --] [-- SearchString --]</h4>
[-- END_IF --]
</div>

[-- IF SEARCHBOTTOM --]
<div class="searchResultForm">

</div><!-- end searchResultForm -->
[-- END_IF --]

</div><!-- end text1 -->

[-- IF PAGE.Text3 --]
<div class="text3">
[-- PAGE.Text3 --]
</div>
[-- END_IF --]

in the error message the format is
template name [ line number ]: specific error.

So the error message below indicates the problem is in a template called "searchtest" on line number 214

searchtest [214]: Template Error: SEARCHPRODUCT not in LOOP_SEARCH loop

and another error occurs on line 226.

If you count the line numbers you will find the offending lines of code that contain the terms SEARCHPRODUCT and SEARCHLINK which can only be used within a [-- LOOPSEARCH --] [-- END_LOOPSEARCH --] section but which are now outside of that loop.
