Has anyone used the search facility today? I know some people never get it to work but I always have but not today.

Hi, Calendargirl, if you type something in the box and hit the enter key, what comes up on the page that displays? Is there any kind of error message?

Nothing comes up, just a big, blank empty screen with ‘Search Gransnet’ at the top.

No error message.

The latter was in reply to StevenGNTech.

I have messaged him also.

Hi Calendargirl, Can you try again and let me know if you see any sort of error message now? We made an update to the page so that it will report if it encounters either of a couple of conditions that may stop it working.

Hi keepingquiet, yes it was started a while ago but sprung back to life in late November because a couple of people were still having problems.

Also, just to note, if the search box at the top of the page (which searches forum messages as well as articles etc) doesn't work you can search forum messages only by going to www.gransnet.com/forums?showsearch=arch

No, afraid it’s still just the same ‘blank’ screen.

Thanks for getting back to us. When you say it's blank, do you see the usual headers / menu etc and a strap line / headline that says "Search Gransnet" or do you mean you just get a completely blank which page as if you weren't on any website?
