Search seems to be working OK. You should get a box like this.... Attached File  search.jpg   51.3K   11 downloads

Andy,
It seems my browser was possibly blocking this. I went into tools - Internet options -  advanced settings and  enabled (I think) 'enable websites to use the search pane'.
It now seems to be working. Thanks for taking the time to look at this.

Regards

John

Hi John, Good to see that you have it working. You might now be interested in a guide I wrote recently: Did you know... the forum has a search feature? and how to use it?

It seems I can't search for "Tiny lid syndrome" because one of the words is less than 4 characters. I understand this limit if I had one word search...

You could use Google to get around this limit. For example, a google search for "tiny lid syndrome" site:http://www.cpukforum.com/ would search for the term "tiny lid syndrome" on http://www.cpukforum.com only. Which in this case will result in one hit: http://www.cpukforum...showtopic=43061
