More database bugs :(

Unfortunately the bugfixing phase isn't over yet as it seems. I have just tracked down and fixed another bug that was causing Lua error messages in MobMap_itemdropdata.lua and/or problems when using the quest tracker and wrong search results on quest target searches. Fortunately though, this bug was entirely server-side, so there's no need for a new MobMap release, you just have to fetch a new database to get the fix.

There's a little caveat though: I had to temporarily deactivate the boss loot tables as they are the source of the problem. But since those were horribly wrong and mostly empty anyway and require a "big fix" (which they will get as soon as I can spare the time) that was only a minor loss.

**sincerely hopes that this bugfix will now finally get the post-3.1-MobMap into a reasonably stable state**

    Ich hab da ein kleines Problem mit dem Questtracker.

    Bei manchen Questgebieten passiert eigenartiges, wenn ich es öffne. Alle Quests, die in dem Gebiet eigentlich da sind, werden nicht angezeigt, die anderen Gebiete rutschen so weit nach unten, dass nichts mehr zu sehen ist. Srollen geht auch nicht, wenn ich wieder auf das - klicke, sind die anderen Gebiete wieder da.

    Vor allem bei dem neuen Turnier passiert das, aber auch in den Grizzleyhügeln war es heute.

    Bei bedarf schicke ich dir gerne mal nen Screenshot, wenn du es nicht reproduzieren kannst.

    I downloaded the most recent database this morning. However, I am having a problem with it. If I click the ? at the side of what's required I am given the mobs that I need from a different quest in my quest log. I have to actually type in the mob name into mobmap to have it identify where they are...and then that is not always working. I was in Ghostlands and mobs I knew were somewhere on the west side, I thought, were being identified as to being over in Farstriders Enclave area or by Orgrimmar. I knew they weren't there! Also, when the selected quests are on my screen, the ? aren't next to the items needed. They drop down a couple lines and then there's a verticle string of ? that may or may not pertain to the quests tagged to be followed. I noticed also, since mobmap's ? problem started up, my quest tracker seems to have been cutting off the last part of the quest as in how many mobs I need or such. Don't know if that is Blizz or MobMap doing it, though.
    Thought I'd let you know the problems I am having on this side.

    The search for questdrops seems totally bugged. Is shows eigther no match found for the "id:xxx" when pressing the questionmark in the questlog or it shows positions or mobs not related to the quest at all...

    The updater has a bug too, i cant upload collected data (access violation in MobMapUpdaterExternals.dll)
