For some reason, none of the internal TalkBass links work for me. I just get a "sorry no matches: message.

For example: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/searc...searchid=694157 (http://www.talkbass.com/forum/search.php?searchid=694157) (from Suggestions for 1-Hour Practice Routine thread in General Instruction forum). That's just one example, but several others I've tried give me the same results. I've tried manually searching using the thread id as a key word, but no joy.

Apparently, it works for others. Do I need to set a particular option for this to work? I'm using WinXP Pro SP2 with IE 6.x, is that the problem?

Sorry to be so thick.

The above link references a search - you cannot link to a search result, only to threads or posts. The link will not work for anyone.

http://www.talkbass.com/forum/search.php?searchid=694157

notice at the end it says "search.php?searchid..." If you're linking to a thread, it will look like this:

http://www.talkbass.com/forum/showthread.php?t=160528

ending with showthread.php?t=something

Thanks. Good to know it's not my computer (or me).

That seems to be a fairly common way that people are using to reference other threads, so I assumed the problem was at my end.
