Suggestion: Add a search box to Forum header

Suggestion: add a Search box (e.g. the one on the DeeperBlue homepage) to the Forum header.

I often find myself having to return to the homepage to do a quick search. It would be great if it were at the top of each forum page (e.g. in the header itself or the mini menu bar under the header).

Re: Suggestion: Add a search box to Forum header

Mr X.

Thanks for the suggestion!

What are you specifically looking for when searching? Forum posts? Articles? News?

The forums have a specific search just for them, whereas the main site can search a lot more.

95% of the time Forum threads -- it doesn't have to be a specific article (although that can be helpful). 5% old articles -- I don't mind going to the homepage for that though, if limiting it to the forums helps. The existing search box on the homepage works real well already though -- just having there on each page is the feature suggestion.
