Hi,
I just joined this forum yesterday and am taking the liberty of putting some suggestions.

1. It will be really nice to have a simple text box search as part of the header of every page.  Specially useful for beginners. The current search link is more appropriate as maybe an advanced search or some such.

Thanks,
Shyam

Since the topic's been brought up, it'd be nice if you could search for two words without them being a phrase. If there's a way to do this, my apologies for missing it.

In the search box type

Code: [Select]

zaurus AND romwill give you all posts with the words "zaurus" and "rom" appearing anywhere in the body or subject.
