Hold the Search Term

[JamesBrown]

If I type an item in the search box, and then decide to do an advanced search, you wipe my search term and I have to type it again.

If in the advanced search page I type a search term, and then choose another tab, say Resources, you dump the term and I have to type it again.

I know I should choose the search location first, but I've been using this software for 10 years and it still catches me out, so it must be catching out most everyone who uses search if they are as dumb as i am.

Please fix it so the search term survives the changes to advanced and other search locations. Cheers

This is the most annoying thing about search. Using the back button is ridiculous.

I guess it's because the Advanced Search button is actually just a like which can't carry the keywords along. Make it a real button should do the job.

I agree this could be improved upon.
