View has a filter set that "views filter block" filtering does not obey

I just created a test that worked fine -- see http://drupal5.douggreenconsulting.com/drupal/node/134257.

Things to look at:

• Do you have clean-url's enabled? At one time not having clean-url's enabled caused problems.
• Is your exposed filter optional or required? If it's optional, and when you first visit the page, it will not have a value, and thus you'll get all results

Other than just disabling the filter block, can you isolate what it is about your view that is different than mine. You gave a rather simplistic test case, which was not your real view (you said, "let's say..."). And I am not able to recreate the problem with this simplistic test case.

I've encountered the same problem. It appears only with the clean URLs disabled. After pressing the filter's 'Submit' button I'm getting the following URLs:

1. with the clean URLs enabled (proper behavior -- only the related nodes are shown):
www.example.com/topics?op0=OR&filter0%5B%5D=1

2. with the clean URLs disabled (frontpage is displayed):
www.example.com/?op0=OR&filter0%5B%5D=1

However, I get the correct output if I manually type the URL:
www.example.com/?q=topics&op0=OR&filter0%5B%5D=1

I've checked in a fix for non clean-url's. This should fix this problem. Please test with the latest 5.x-dev branch and let me know if this works for you or not. Thanks!

I can reproduce the problem with the version:

5.x-1.x-dev 2007-Apr-12 (views_filterblock.module,v 1.4.2.11 2007/04/11 13:10:11)

Is there any later version available?
