no find function on the forum!

[inactive account]

It's a shame that no search fonction exist on the HP forum.
When I use the search URL, it never get to search in the forum database. Am I missing something?

[Marco Santerre]

It is strange that you don't get that, cause when I'm in the ITRC forums and I click on search, the box that gets displayed, shows me a check box to search within ITRC forums.

[Alex Glennie]

see top left underneath the HP invent logo and ensure you check the itrc box

You need to check the box that says ITRC Forums.

Just click the "search" at the left side ITRC bar of this page. Check "itrc forum" and enter your search text.

Thanks to every one for your answers but :
- I know I can click on the search button on the left frame (I can read!)
My remark is in fact about the poor ergonomy of it!
Because the URL is a javascript, you can't open it in a different window or signet (with netscape 7) and this link takes you away from the forum you are currently checking. It is just not practical... That is what I meant with my remark (angry one !)

Laurent,

Glad to hear you can read! We certainly weren't trying to insult you. Some people have a hard time finding that button for some reason. I agree that the search function can be troublesome, but the fact that it doesn't come up in a separate window can be addressed quite easily by opening another window just for search functions. I always keep a separate window open for just that purpose.

Good luck - keep on foruming!

We all agree with you that searching in this forum does not offer much flexibilty.
