Hmm... checked all that. Can you post or PM me with your search terms? Also the OS you are running.

I was wondering if I was the only one to use both of those settings (especially the newest first). Actually I wish they had a 100 posts/pg. setting (or even a display all posts clickable along with the clickable page numbers), especially when scanning through a thread.

I'm also using Ff 2.0.0.7, if I can help check out some of the search terms.

The Beta test search has been turned off as the default search. To use it you have to go to the bottom of the advanced search page and use the "Search Forums -- IB Beta Search" form.

This was covered in the announcement above all forums.

Looks like a good dog. Locate a local dog park and prepare to throw LOTS of tennis balls!

Just did a sdf search in beta for all open forum and found nothing. Got the blank white screen again.

Ed1 seems to do well. What about the rest of you out there?

Maybe it has something do do with those horrible ads that I haven't seen using Firefox with FlashBlock, Vista HP, and WindowsLive OneCare and 1899 Kb cable ISP. This one took 5.8 sec. for search and Ff to load:

Sdf
Posted By Spiff
Please let me know your price range (e.g. would you be willing to go to Asia) and dates available. Right now, things are a little sparse out of SDF on AA. Fares are low to DEN, LAS, and PHX, but not quite MR material. I'd give it another week or 3, unless you're in a big hurry.

I have a long wait for a flight at SDF in mid-October. There are no CRCs listed online, but are there any partner lounges available to wait in? Thanks!

And if your day going out of SDF happens to be a week Thursday (Oct 12), you can get in to that club as our guest if you plan to arrive at the airport about 330, give or take.
and again, the list goes on...

Like boxo and mshaikun, I now get a blank screen when using the beta search. Happens in FF and IE.

Any suggestions?

There is some kind of problem that affects some users and not others. We're still trying to track it down.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
