Suggestion / wishlist for saved search - do away with "submit"

jksmurf · 2008-05-11, 01:16 AM

I have a suggestion / wishlist for saved searches. If you save a search, it's clear that's what you want to search on, so it makes sense you just choose the saved search and it automatically does the search, i.e. do away with the second step, "submit" Good idea?

Possibly, but I occasionally like to go through my saved searches - adding, deleting and changing - without needing to do a search... so I would vote for the current behaviour...

Yea...I have a few "base" saved searches that I bring up and then change the variables rather than having multiple saved searches with the same base criteria.

I think you'll have to continue exerting the extra energy to click the submit button.... Wink

Nice set of links in your sig by the way

How long did it take you to come up with them?
