Search Broken, Sometimes.
When I do a search it it works the first time, but then hangs up somewhere in the process for all subsequent searches.
After I click search a blank page loads, with the following address: http://www.tfproject.org/tfp/search.php?do=process Then...nothing. Another forum I belong to uses vBulletin version 3.6.5 and gives me no trouble. I use Firefox 3.5.8 on Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala Suggestions?

3.6.5 is super old vb. I'm trying to see how I can reproduce this, but cannot at all.
Can you make sure you've cleaned out the cache of FF?

I'm not sure what FF stands for, but I cleared my caches totally. It seems I wasn't as thorough in my initial investigation as I should have been.
It only does this when the search attempts to return 0 results. And, only with certain search strings. The one that is doing it for me repeatedly is "edit post time limit". I had another one that was doing it, but I can't remember what it was now - I will try to find others to see if there is a common thread. //Edit: Seems to happen with any search that includes the phrase "time limit" anywhere in the search.

FF = Firefox.
Thanks. I can recreate the problem and will try to find a solution. ---------- Post added at 10:14 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ---------- the problem is the word TIME.

no one searches for the word time.
what are you looking for re: post edit time limit?

I've noticed some folks mention they would prefer it if there were a time limit on editing posts. I wanted to start a discussion about whether or not this was a feature we should have here and so I was searching to see if there were any threads about it already, before I made my own.

there isn't one that I know of, but has come up as a suggestion in the past.

I do have a fix and an explanation, I'm not sure I'll implement it just yet. It's a bit technical if you're interested I can PM you the information.
