No. It isn't. I just clicked it and got "the blank screen of death". Banana Cologne has a search link in his signature that works just fine. I don't see why a simple fix can't be made so that when you click search above, it directs you to the same page as BC's link. I sent a couple of orgnotes on this, and got a reply saying my request was being considered. I find it a useful function when I'm tryna reference other threads.

SOMEBODY HELP!!!!!

You CAN use the "search the site" thingy up top to the right of the screen and it searches through Yahoo, but as was said it doesn't work as well as a proper search would. Look up BananaCologne's profile, his sig has a link that's said to work much better. smile

Personally I don't think Ben will ever put the search back up, it should be removed but Ben is a very busy family man.

BC's sig would send you to Google/Advanced Search. So, to search, go to Google, advanced search. scroll down to "domain" and enter prince.org. Enter your search terms in boxes at top of page as normal, and your results will only show prince.org messages.
