Is it just me who can't use the search facility any more?

It's very annoying. A straightforward search only brings up one or two things, not even very recent. Using advanced search looks like search used to be, but it won't work.If I highlight 'all topics' and then 'search', it says I have to choose a topic. Then it won't let me. Grrrr.

In the top section of Advance search, if you want to search ALL topics, don't select Choose Topics. Leave it on Search All. Click the BLUE search button, not the Purple one.

Thanks Nannynick. For some reason, my blue search button is white , and hard to see, but you helped me find it. Thanks!

Hard refresh the search page - CTRL+F5 in most browsers. The button is a graphic which a few days back didn't seem to work... but Tech fixed it. I see the button now using FireFox3.0.5

Nope - CTRL F5 didn't work - am in Internet Explorer - but it doesn't matter, now I know it's there I can use it!
