vendor and zip are field indexes. coupon_text and categorylist are keyword 
indexes.

If you add an instance and then try to search, no results will be 
found.  Here's the odd thing.  After I add an instance, I go to the 
zcatalog object in the management interface and manually hit the "update 
Catalog" button.  If I run the search again the new instance will be found 
if it matches the search criteria.
The search will work with one or more search criteria entered into the form 
fields.
