Is the search function not working? Everytime I've tried doing a search over the past few days, it brings up the following:

The requested URL could not be retrieved

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

While trying to retrieve the URL: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/search.php

The following error was encountered:

We can not connect to the server you have requested.

This means that:


The server might be busy at this time.
The server is not reachable.


Please try later to see if you can go through.

Then, if I try again - it says that the administrator only allows one search every 30 seconds or something to that extent.

Also, when you go to the advanced search page, for some reason I can't scroll down using the side bar through the forums. I can however highlight the forum & use my down arrow key to scroll down. I don't know what the problem is - but it happens from both my work computer & home computer.

Thanks!

That sounds like a network problem with your connection. Especially since you state that you can get through the second time (and then get the 30 second error).

That's a browser issue. When you say you can't scroll using the side bar, what is/isn't happening for you? Can you grab that scroll bar with your mouse and it doesn't move? Is there no scroll bar?

I see the scroll bar, but I can't grab it. The outside IE scroll bar worked, but the inside forum box scroll bar wouldn't. I'm home from work now & the search function & scroll bars work from here today. I guess my company has some sort of weird connection - we use the stock IE browser that came with Windows XP at work (same as I use at home).
