Hi,
I am quite new to this api, and am having some trouble using the mediawiki api to search for images.
For example, if I am looking for images with title of Palahniuk, I get different results manually and programmatically.
Manual: If I search on the string "Palahniuk" from the browser at http://commons.mediawiki.org , I get two relevant image results. However, if I pass this to an api query, I get zero results:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&prop=images&titl...
Can someone help? My primary goal is to get programmatic results for such queries...
Thanks Anand

Use the search list:

Thanks, Bryan, that worked.
