Thanks to Lars' work, the search function on this web site is much more reliable now. If you receive an error while searching please post a bug report at https://openacs.org/bugtracker/openacs.org/

Thanks!

This is great news, I will check it out. I really got frustrated when searching for information lately.

Can you tell us what has been changed ?

Thanks to all of you involved (esp. Lars and Dave) for tackling the issue

Malte,

This is one fix Lars made: http://cvs.openacs.org/cvs/openacs-4/packages/acs-tcl/tcl/text-html-procs.tcl?f=h&r1=1.21&r2=1.20

Apparently, according to his commit message there was one other bug in this tcl proc and it is fixed on HEAD.

The forums packge runs HTML formatted posts through ad_html_to_text before delivering the data to the search package to generate the summaries.
