The search box remembers my last search phrase and I can't find a way to avoid it other than deleting my cookies. I'm certain that this behaviour is a feature of the search function but I find it rather annoying since I rarely search for precisely the same stuff several times in a row. Normally I search for different stuff and I tend to use the keyboard shortcut (Alt+s) right after the search box appears in my browser which is normally before the entire page has finished loading. However when the page has finished loading the old search phrase is inserted into the search box and often my new search phrase is overwritten which is quite annoying! I hope you would consider removing this feature or at least make it customizable by the users (like the language settings etc). Have a nice day :-) Cheers, Tommy Ipsen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=25786&edit=1
