How do users "Search the forum" after the magnifying glass disappears?


Drew Cobb (10132015) | asked Jun 22 '12, 12:46 p.m.
On the Jazz.net homepage, when / if users enter text in the "Search the forum" text box, the magnifying glass disappears and there is no apparent way to execute your search.  When I try to execute the search by clicking on the "Enter" key, I am taken to a mostly blank page with only an empty text box with radio buttons for questions, tags and users displayed underneath the text box.  I am using IE 8.0.7600.16385 on Windows 7 (32 bit).

@jaxjaguar, I think you mean the Forum main page (not Jazz.net home page), and I'm not able to replicate that experience. I enter a search term and hit the Enter key. I tried in IE8 and other browsers. What term are you searching for?

We haven't been able to replicate the blank page behavior, unfortunately.

In the forum main page, when you type in the search box, the magnifying glass does disappear.  This is a bit confusing, but just press Enter to start the search.  This works for me - I am using IE9 and I have tried it on FF10 also.
