    Hello, I have found a bug in the Who's Who section when I am trying to make a search. All I did was to search for myself ;) in the section so I entered Savescu as a keyword and there I was. Then I changed the way I wanted people to see me by making my first letter bold Savescu. Searching again for myself I discoverd that it won't find me this time. I tried the keyword "avescu" and the server found me. Then I removed the bold tag and the search engine was able to find my name again It is clear now that searching does not skip the HTML tags. Best regards, Alexandru Savescu

              The stripper class (which I do already use) works on text that contains HTML within the ASP scripts. It's a lot more difficult to apply a filter to a text field within a table column within a SQL SELECT statement. cheers, Chris Maunder

                          It's better to report bugs to the admin himself, rather than posting it publically for everybody to see, especially when it's security related. (Not that this is, but it could've been.) - Jason (SonorkID 100.611) "I just recieved an email from myself but I didn't send it ?"       - Colin Davies, Sonork conference
