Android browsing search failure!


Hi All,

It is so much easier to browse through the collected wisdom here on my Android tablet than on the desktop however, the search function fails to work.

I select 'search', the menu box opens and I start to type in it, and it closes. Sometimes it closes before I type!

I have two browsers, the resident Samsung Android browser and Firefox. In both these browsers, I also have the ability to select the 'Desktop' setting, so, I have tried to search in the four possible modes. None are successful.

The search engine on the sister site 'androids are us' :-) works perfectly.

Any suggestions gratefully received.

I would like to search for all information on 'Komodo' for Suse Leap 42.3.

Regards

Chris

PS, forgot to mention, the search function in the header bar is the one that fails, the side bar is fine.
