Thats probably a browser cache too, keeping the stale page data with the message icon in it.

There is a reason the iphone has an app for every site, the browser sucks smile

Blast,

I am the one that reported the search problem. Shortly after I got it working, it stopped working again. I am still getting the same errors as of today 4/3/2012.

Using Google Chrome the error is:
Not Found
The requested URL /search.htm was not found on this server.
Apache Server at www.equipped.org Port 80

The URL that cannot be found is:
http://www.equipped.org/search.htm

---------------------------
Using IE8 the error is:
"The web page cannot be found"

The URL that cannot be found is:
http://forums.equipped.org/cgi-bin/etslinklaunch.pl

----------------------------
To be clear, this happens when I go to this URL:
http://forums.equipped.org/ubbthreads.php?ubb=postlist&Board=1&page=1

Then I select Search ETS from the list and then press the "Go" button.

It does seem odd that the missing URL is different for different browsers.

I also tried both browsers on another PC and I get the same errors.

I can't imagine I am the only one getting these errors--this does seem to be an issue on the server. Perhaps others are not doing the same thing I am.

Nope. I have the opposite - 8 pages for practically everything I enter!

Ditto for me if I click directly on the link.

when i just wander onto the main ETS FORUM page i see there is a

"Where do you want to go on ETS?" drop down box that has

"Search ETS" as one of the choices.

this is the link that gives the error messages described above.

when i wander onto the main ETS HOME page there is a search feature box - upper left hand corner - wherein one can search all of ETS for your topic.

when i SIGN IN to the ETS FORUM there is now a dedicated

"SEARCH" box

where one can search the FORUMS for your topic of interest.

hence the confusion.

whew. my head hurts.
