search facility not searching correct categories

Hi all I am using a classified ads software called flynax and I am having toruble customizing a search form. in the admin you can set up categories that are called listing types. I have 4 listing types which are

The problem is when i do a search for lets say a ford motor and select the category from the drop down box it does not find it. I did however notice that when i click search regardless of the category i select from the drop down the next page it brings me to is the category of listings. I can see this by the url displayed after I search. that url is [url]http://www.cheapdeals.ie/listings/search-results.html[/url] where the page [url]http://www.cheapdeals.ie/motor/search-results.html[/url] should show up.

Here are a list of the search urls

Even if i search the motor section it still shows this link
[url]http://www.cheapdeals.ie/listings/search-results.html[/url]

For motor it should be
[url]http://www.cheapdeals.ie/motor/search-results.html[/url]

and the property should be
[url]http://www.cheapdeals.ie/property/search-results.html[/url]

for the jobs it should be
[url]http://www.cheapdeals.ie/jobs/search-results.html[/url]

then for general listings which includes everything else it is
[url]http://www.cheapdeals.ie/listings/search-results.html[/url]

Please see below the form being used to preform the search. Any help would be great.
