Hi All

I've added a google search to the top right corner of ore. It takes you to a page on ore and provides a google search showing only the results for ore (unless you click search the web). Googles search will be way more powerful than the forum search and will take a lot of the load off the server.

Try it out and let me know if its an improvement. Its best we use google as the forum search as this has been a common theme the last few months that the forum search was returning random shit.

Great!
Can you make it 60pt lettering and bold so it cant be missed if the user is thinking about wipers or coloured valve caps?

I'm having trouble using the search in Chrome, it works fine in IE9 but nothing comes up in Chrome.

would be funny if googles own search isnt working in its own browswer :roll: Its working for me. Anyone else with chrome having difficulties? It is a full on javascript search so make sure you have that enabled.
