I dont know what I did, but The "search" browser dissappeared. Help please =(

[Nazareth Nirvana]

Well, as I said in Subject, I dont know what I did, but the "search" browser is no more there. I tried to find the answer on my own but didnt make it *sigh*

Thanks for your time

If you are thinking of the search button on the bottom button bar in the viewer, I believe you can right click the bar and select the buttons you want to show.

I know this works in viewer 2, but I'm unsure of how it works in other viewers.

Oops! You said 'the search browser'. What exactly do you mean by that?

Please check that your versions of Flash, Quicktime and Java are up to date.

Also, make sure you have ticked Accept Cookies and Enable Javascript in Preferences > Setup.

I'm not sure what the OP means by search browser, but the search window - if that is what the question is about - should open and display content regardless of the cookie and/or javascript settings in prefs. When javascript is disabled, you get a result in the window, but nothing happens when you click a link. The cookie setting has, as far as I can tell, no effect on search. I guess it can affect the ability to go back to the search result after tp'ing, or something like that, but I don't really know.

Do you mean inworld and what viewer are you using?

On Phoenix you can switch off the search bar up in the top right corner of your screen, if that is the one you are talking about it can be found in:

Edit - Preferences - Phoenix - Misc Tab

Hi Luc! Just tested inworld with 2.5. If Java is disabled the Search window opens but all sections are completely blank and this message appears: "JavaScript is required for Search functionality. Please go to the Me menu, select Preferences, choose the Setup menu, and check Enable JavaScript." You're right in that Search doesn't seem to need Cookies enabled, it's web Profiles that need this or they remain blank.

How strange! It's only like a couple of weeks since I tried disabling both but still got a result showing in the search window (but could not click any links). I have since enabled javascript, but still have cookies disabled and search works as well (or bad) as ever.

Perhaps it is different on a mac than on a pc? Wierd...

Try right clicking at the top and put a check mark by 'navigation bar' if the 'mini location bar' is checked.
