Default this is a little wierd (search)

i just noticed this.

if i search for one word.. i get results.

if i search for more then one word, regardless of the word, i get a blank page.


this seems like a new thing since you switched over to the new server...???


i know you're working on it, but i figured id mention it incase you didnt notice or something and its a quick fix.

I searched for two words earlier and it worked just fine... Give me specifics and I can do better to track it down.

whenever i type in anything for a search, it comes up with a blank page. its a blank page, and it says 'done' at the bottom, but nothing is there. ive cleared the cookies and everthing incase i needed to after switching to the new server, but it didnt help. i dont know how to be more specific...i type in something to search, like wheels, and when i hit search a new page comes up, but its blank...

warhawk block = blank
warhawk = results.

corvette procharger bracket = blank
corvette procharger =blank
procharger = results.


it should be noted that every blank comes back RIGHT AWAY.. no delay.. all results have a slight delay while the search is being generated.

there is so much info on the site...but without search, its so difficult to find what you need....could you imagine going through 1113 pages of threads in the internal section?? yikes

oh, and my screen looks like the screen shot CamaroZ posted,

did this ever get figured out?

I used my friend comp who uses AOL and search worked. But im using Firefox 2.0.0.6 and i tried IE7 (version 7.0.5730.11) and instead of a blank screen like posted above by Camaroz i get a screen that says:

Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage

Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address.

What you can try:
Diagnose Connection Problems

More information

Meanwhile, just use google with the 'site' feature. For example, looking for 'ls6 painting tips' key words.
In google search, type: site:www.ls1tech.com "ls6 painting tips"

google cannot tell the diff between post content and someones sig.




on that note.. hey brains, could you turn the DEFAULT for sigs to off? then when google scrapes it, they dont get the sigs in the results.

Hmm... good idea on the sigs, I'll have to pitch that one around to the rest of the folks. Hopefully we won't be using Google at all in a bit

As an aside, I'll be in California at the Internet Brands offices tomorrow and Wednesday, and you can guess what topic will be right at the top of the list

what kind of pastry is appropriate for 8am office meetings? because i think bear claws are ok, as are cheese danishes... however i think eclairs are pushing it too far to the snack side of things.....
