no info, no answer

[Timothy J. allen]

Have you ever been searching for an answer to a question and find that google points you to a thread on the COW that you yourself answered?

The COW can be a pretty good archive system for your brain sometimes. 😉

David and Ron what about this.

Whenever I make a post to ask a question the 3 headings that come up are, of course, Name, E-Mail Address and Subject. Do you think it would be possible to add a “Search” button below them with a default search length of 3 months and default parameter of the present forum?
This search to be based on what is in the “Subject” line.

Then, allow them to use their back button to continue to create the post if they don’t find the answer there. (Hey you might even be able to set it up that no post is created unless the search button HAS been used) I agree that everyone should use the present search engine as is before asking a question but we all know that this is not going to happen.

Just a thought;
