Search function

(1/1)

littlejohn:
I've just been using the search function a bit, and find that once I enter the info and hit search then follow a link to a possible match, I can't go back.

A page pops up to say whatever I was looking at has expired, so I go back another page & re-enter the search query then go again.

Bit of a pain as I rarely find what I'm after first time, and it's not something I've run in to on other sites.

Just thought I'd mention it. Hopefully this all makes sense!

Firefrog:
Hi Littlejohn

Are you using the site wide search or the search function within the forum?

This is normal behaviour but is handled differently depending on your browser. In firefox the pop up informs that the last page visited contains post data but is it still allows you to go back. Internet explorer can be a bit unfriendly sometimes.

littlejohn:
Hi Frog,

I'm using the SEARCH (in capital letters, above forum), as opposed to 'Search function' at end of the forum address/location string.

I certainly wouldn't put it past IE to be having a fit, though this is the only forum/webpage I've run in to the issue. Happened half a dozen consecutive times earlier today.

I'm not terribly fussed. Just thought I'd mention it incase there was a gremlin in the system.

Cheers,
John

Firefrog:
Some of these issues will hopefully be resolved when we get our upgrades done.

Firefrog:
Littlejohn can you please check this problem now and report back it should be fixed!
