Problem with Search Function

In the past, I realized a couple of times that the time range within the search function does not work properly - I always got all threads related to the search words.

Now things seem to get worse: I looked for "lyon" in the hilton forum, and I got 195 (!) threads. No need to mention that I did not check them all - but those wich I checked did not contain the word or even letters "lyon".

Seems to be a function of this search engine.
Recentyly on another board there was a similar problem. I guess FT is using the same search engine so it is giving you a space in your word.
Searching for lyon will give you many examples in every forum.
eg:
Fly only
Directly onto another airline
Perhaps you can add another word with lyon to your search request that would eliminate most of the ly ons?

Magic,

Thank you, I did not think of that possibility. Gives me some trouble, because I don't have any idea which word(s) I could combine.

Any idea about the "Search By Date" problem?

We were looking at that before, but couldn't find the source of the problem... We'll take a look with fresh eyes and see what could be up with it...

Okay, it should be behaving itself now...

Give the search by date a shot and let us know if it's still returning all values, despite a selected date range.

Tried it again, and it worked perfectly well. Thank you!
