Searching

Could you please lower the minimum search term size to two characters? At the moment it is three which means you can't search for things like: SV 30 mm, ED eyepieces, GS blah blah etc.

good idea

How about typing in ED** . Use wildcards to take up the other letters. It will also help eliminate any words ending in "ed"

well if that works than great

but are you going to get a whole bunch of hits from words that start with ed?

speak to the ed**er

ving (David) · #6 02-03-2005, 03:04 PM
