I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab tablet and a Samsung Galaxy phone, when I log into the club and try to use the search facility, the search box comes up. When I press to get the keyboard, the search finishes. Any advice please?. Thanks, John.

Thanks for the reply. How do I do that on my tablet?. When I press search, the keyboard flashes for a second then disappears.

Hold the link/option you want and an options menu will come up, second option will be the "open in new window" option

Or get a Google tablet and then you can use "OK Google"

Agree with Peter and Rich, or you could of course use the dedicated forum search located at the top of the index page.

Many thanks for all the replies, I don't think I have explained the problem properly. The problem is when I am on this site. I log in to the forum, if I want to search for a post, e.g. FBH, the search box opens, I type in FBH and the keyboard on my tab shows for a second and disappears. I can access everything else on the site perfectly, just not the search facility. John.

Hi John

I think we all understand your problem, maybe you've misunderstood the replies, there's two ways you can do what you want.

Either click search and this window will appear

you now need to click "advanced search" which will open this page to do your search from

or, if you press and hold search this will appear

now all you have to do is click open in new tab and the advanced search page will open

Hope that helps.
