I'm not sure what you are trying to do on results2.html - I could find a
closing </form> tag on the code your posted - it is just a fragment?
I any case, you could try the mv_unique parameter in your search:
[page search="
se=Hand Tools
sf=prod_group
rf=category
un=yes
tf=category
sp=results2
"]
Hand Tools
[/page]
On results2.html:
[search-region]
[search-list]
[loop-code] // This will contain the category because of
rf=category in the search
[/search-list]
[/search-region]
...should give you a list of unique category names which match your search.
