Hi,

I just started here today and can't get the SEARCH feature to work- either before I registered or since!

(I wanted to search threads on web hosts-to review who I'll go with).

Whassup with that?

Stevie.

PS- Great resource nonetheless....

Do you mean you received an error message when you attempted a search?

What keyword/s are you using to search with?

well I filled in the name in the box and clicked just about everything,tried "Advanced Search" bit and that din't click.

Maybe I'm beeing reall dumb??

(And I know there is no 'best' host....was just checking out a couple possibles for 'feedback' aas one host I thought of before I discovered through manually wadingthru the forum has a TERRIBLE service nowadays...)

Thanks folks for taking thetime to reply!

Best,

Steviedemon

I'd have to guess that there are no results to your query because the term hasn't been mentioned here.

nope,not that as nothing works - it doesn't even do any searches...!
I've tried a few options- ad after your msg typed in one host mentioned many times...nothing happenened,no searching,no lights ,no whimpers....!

(I'm onMac BTW..could that be a reason??)
Is there anything I could be doing wrong?

Hello,

I know what your problem is. Try going to this URL and searching : www.webhostingtalk.com/search.php
The drop down search box hasn't worked since they upgraded vBulletin in safari. Its been brought up a few times before!

Sometimes it doesnt' work.

I tried advance searching for "adsense firefox extension" and it returned zero results.

On the fourth try, it returned results.

That link's available in the footer, by the way.

Call me dumb but i cannot find the "new posts" button.
Which makes me have to type the url in manually.
Does this theme have the button (me going blind :P) or am i right ?

Thanks

Button is on the right hand side (link actually) under cookie information on the main page only (index.php):
