Small bug with LQ search


For some reasion, when I search for 'BIOS', it shows up as
LinuxQuestions.org > Forums > Search > Thread Results (IOS)
It seems to work fine, but why does it show up as this, or is it just a bug?

Actually the search is ok, it's just the portion of what text string to highlight. One of the threads my search found was:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...&highlight=IOS

So I changed the highlight portion at the end of the URL with:

http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...highlight=BIOS

Refreshed the page and it highlighted the search term, so yeah, querky bug but easily get around it for now.

Verified. I see the problem, and it should be fixed later today. Thanks for the bug report.

This may be intended behavior, but a search for "threads with zero replies" gives
Quote:

. Quite frankly, it shouldn't matter, but I thought I would just comment on it here.

Cool. Works great. Wasn't sure if that was a bug or not per se.
