Quick Shopping Cart uses MySQL, which uses "Stopwords" to compile product databases. Stopwords are words that are so common they are filtered out when a search is performed using any of these words, so no results are returned. The search function in Quick Shopping Cart may return a null result even though the word does exist in the product description.

The default list of stopwords is located on the MySQL Full-Text Stopwords page.
