    Question Search?

    This is my first post, so hello everyone. Unfortunately, it is prob a very stupid post......
    The search function at the top, beneath the blue strip...

    Where the **** is the "go" button? I can use "search forum" dropdown, and the "advanced search" in the blue banner, but the main search box....

    As I said it was prob a very stupid question......, just didn't occur to me when filling in on screen form, not to look for on-screen submit button. For instance now I have written this reply, what do I do? Why press a "submit" button, not hit the enter key!


    ps it is 8am here, and I have not been to bed yet. This might explain things!

    Because you dont input multiple lines in Search Box and Enter key is considered as Submit only.
    It is amazing what you can accomplish if you do not care who gets the credit.

    I personally prefer the Advanced Search, not for the almighty 'search now' button, but for the much more thorough search and custom search options.
