Basic search query hangs without completing #38
Description
reported by Jennifer Fraterrigo at UIllinois: "I have noticed problems when I perform some basic searches. For example, when I perform a basic search for records of Pinus strobus, the page tries to load but never finishes. However, when I use the advanced search tool and specify a dataset type (e.g., pollen), then the page loads. I hope this information helps improve the website."

Basic Request requires an abundance input parameter. Testing with > 3% for Pinus strobus returns a divide by zero error. Search terms and response: search: {"taxa":{"taxonIds":["697"],"abundance":{"minPercent":"3"}},"time":null}
{"success":0,"message":"Divide by zero error encountered."}
Similar search in Advanced pane does not require abundance.
Search terms: {"taxa":{"taxonIds":["697"]},"time":null,"space":null,"metadata":null,"datasetTypeId":""}
Response: data for 294 sites
To do: (1) handle failed query response to prevent Explorer from hanging; (2) debug search query with abundance selection that produces divide by zero
