Woah! I wasn't talking to anyone in specific as this was just bad timing. Although, you do sound a little guilty and after reading your question I know why :) The question: subject: intermediate search screen hi guys i cannot see any way to actual get this to happen , although, vbulletin is the only place i've seen it in action, any ideas how they do it ? I've seen many worse but few would say that's a "Smart Question" Not to pick on you but you asked for it and I guess will make for a good example :) Anyway, if we all read/digest (and not partially skim) smart-questions.html, and make use of our draft folders, life will only improve. Not everyone is familiar with vbulletin and even fewer know exactly what "intermediate search screen" means. But, in this case someone knew what you meant and helped, so that's nice. Regards, Philip
