Is the search feature broken?

from Elemental Forums

The search button doesn't seem to do anything right now.  I'm using Chrome.

 

Is anyone else having  this problem?  

 

Thanks.   :|

Yup, broken, I'm using Firefox.

What are you typing into the search and from where?  I just tested it and it seems to be working fine.

I run NoScript, and have to allow a few new scripts for search (over what's needed for logging in).  Could that be your problem?

EDITED IN: I checked and have to allow Google for the search results to show up, otherwise it's blank.

Thanks for the information, I'll keep that in mind in case this happens again in the future.

It actually worked a few times, but it was kind of sporadic.  I was searching for "caravans" ...

Typing something into the upper right search box and clicking search (or pressing Enter) does nothing from the main Elemental General forum page. If you try searching the same way after having drilled into a post it works (and still searches the entire board). I'm using Firefox.
