message # box

I hate to bring up the "message # wars" again. However, today I was searching for message #1 in my group. I realize this could be had by simply clicking on Date to reverse the order, but instead I typed "1" into the msg# box and hit "enter." Nothing happened. Then I tried typing "1" into the box and instead clicking on the search icon. All that did was take me into the next search screen, with a place for entering a search term, which I did not want to do. Obviously, when you're searching for a particular message # you would not normally enter a search term as well. Going directly into "search" also did not work, because there's no msg# box - just a place for a search term. Before raising this as a bug, am I missing something? What is the current idea behind the message# box? It does not seem to do anything, as far as I can tell. J |

Ok. I'll report a bug. I'm using safari. Will also try Firefox.

Doesn't work for me in either safari or Firefox. Could you try one of those? I had another search bug previously which Mark could g reproduce but was able, by a weird magical trial and error, to fix. At least one other person in beta confirmed it but Mark could never find it.

J,
I realize this could be had by simply clicking on Date to reverse theNothing? You mean that the list of messages stayed exactly as it had been? Could you see a refresh happen? If it gave you a blank result I'd suspect that perhaps msg #1 had been deleted from your group. But doing nothing is different. Then I tried typing "1" into the box and instead clicking on the searchRight. That's the other kind of search. Doesn't work for me in either safari or Firefox.Works fine for me in Firefox and Edge on Win10 Pro 64-bit. Shal |
