Hi guys,
I use IE to browse/search topics. Up to very recently i had no issue running a search. However, when I run a search now the display screen is not functioning properly.
Attached is screen shot after running a search.

I'm not able to reproduce this. What version of IE are you using?

I'm unable to reproduce it either, do you have any addons that are interfering? That show navigation button does not show up on mine.
Edit:
Try running it in safe mode:

It is not specific to IE now. It happens in Chrome too - I can't search forum.
When I first log into Nagios Forum I used to go to the top right part of the screen, from any board, in the 'Advanced Search' box and type in a topic, such as 'check_http', and hit enter. Then it would return all different topics relating to my search. Instead I just get the screen shot I attached (same as IE).

Still can't reproduce it. Though to be clear, that's the regular search. The "Advanced Search" is a link you need to click. When you use the regular search box, it's actually pulling in results from a custom Google Search service we pay for. So there might be some security policy on your machine or something on your network that is blocking iframes or cross-domain includes. I am not 100% sure how the results are displayed/generated, but they are not part of the stock phpbb (forum) software.
If you click the Advanced Search link and search from there, it should work. That uses just the phpbb search.

ok. I was always using the box above the Advanced search link when searching topics. I will use the advanced search link going forward. FYI... when i query the regular box on a MAC i don't have the same issue - it returns the topics i queried for. Something is def up with custom Google search.
Thank you!!!! please close.
