Dmitri- It seems that the problem has to do with long search strings, and search strings that are in quotes.
> Is there a point to your post, or are you just frustrated? While I admit I was a bit frustrated in my previous post, I'm not just blowing off steam. I believe the point I'm trying to make is valid, and points to an issue that is endemic within the open source community. Most all of us are developers ourselves, and will put up with a certain amount of buggy behavior. But this same attitude causes problems when you try to break into the mainstream. I love JBoss, I think it's the best damn thing since sliced bread. But when I try to recommend it to my clients, and point them at the JBoss website, I'd like to think it (the website) is going to work properly. > I'm guessing they could be running on JBoss, the your criticism > should be aimed at jive, which is the forum software I believe. It > is the same software that sun use on their forums afaik. My main point is that it doesn't matter what the forums are running on. The perception will be that if the website that the developers of JBoss put up to promote the use of their product doesn't work properly, then why should I use their software for my enterprise application? It doesn't matter that the forum software is written by a third party, the perception is the same. whew :) Anyway, I know I'm picking nits here. However, it's very similar to writing a resume, but not correcting all the spelling mistakes. It creates a perception of stupidity and inattention to detail that may not reflect reality. BTW- just for giggles, I ran some long searches on Sun's java forums and the results came back fine. So either they corrected the bug, or it is a configuration issue.
