So, umm... in that case, what did you think I meant when I said toggle the search type if it seems to get stuck? If you weren't aware of the search types menu, what were you trying to do at that point in the instructions, instead? This isn't an idle question. I spend quite a bit of time on various mailing lists giving instructions, and obviously, try to write them to be understood. I obviously skipped a critical step here, click the dropdown and choose regex, so I know to include that next time, but I haven't the foggiest what you were doing with the toggle instruction if it wasn't that. Maybe you were simply skipping that instruction as it made no sense to you at that point? Or maybe you were doing something else, I have no idea what. If I can better envision what people are thinking when reading my instructions, even when I'm not clear, perhaps I can make them clearer, the next time. =:^) -- Duncan - List replies preferred.
