Does "changes to the search feature are as designed" mean that advanced post search is not coming back?

Hi Guys,
We have enabled the Mozilla wysiwyg editor. While the editor works and is almost as good as the Internet Explorer version this feature does have some known issues. These known issues are not likely to be addressed in the near future. If these problems are an issue for you, do not fret, the original HTML editor is still available! Simply go to "My Profile", click on the "Preferences" tab and uncheck the box labelled "Use WYSIWYG editor".
THANK you.. I prefer to post in raw HTML anyway, been used to it since I made the switch to Firefox back in beta

All the issues here are already reported:
We have reported the WYSWYG problem (where its missing from firefox but should be there)
PA Link and Server name is showing the wrong data.
Spell Check Not working...
Login window actually being the window you log into
This issues are from you and will be:
Firefox posting problems
NOT BUGS
Changes to the search features are as designed.
Signature restrictions (max width and height)are as designed
ADDITIONAL NOTES:
Firefox 1.0 works fine (I am using it now yay) full WYSWYG support and all
Please add your new forum problems here in SHORT to the point post, this is not to be used for discussion please because if you bury it in text I wont see it and I want to report these things to them asap!

Firefox 1.0 does not work fine.
As matter of fact it wont hold the cookies now nor will it let me hit the submit button.
It also looks like the IE version of the board which is what I didnt want in the first place and why I was using firefox. Oh well Ill just get another browser for posting here.

Skin Jedi Trials is broken, all icons (eg reply, forward backward etc) show as text, so you get Reply Reply. New Message New Message - Quite annoying as i prefer this skin (and am still using)
Combat upgrade documentation link from home page is still broken and points to a deleted message (and the message i posted about it has been deleted also - Why ????? )

Hmm...not to be addressed in the near future? For a browser that is predicited to have approximately 25% of the browser market by next quarter? With all due respect, you might want to revisit that...

Within the WYSWIG post editor (IE 6 SP2), try the following
enter the text (return after each line)
enter the text (return after each line)
test
test
then highlight the 2 lines and choose indent, then trying to submit post gives
Message Body: The message body contains the following prohibited content: 'style =' You must remove this content before submitting your post.

also it would seem trying to put 'style =' (take the space out) causes an error

Using the "Verbose" settings gives a bit too much info. Example:
"During the dates listed in the post, the development team and the correspondents will keep track of all the great ideas and suggestions, catalogue them and send them to the game designers in a neat package so that they might be properly considered for the game."
This takes up 5 lines on my display at home ... and is no doubt worse on lower resolutions.

Sorry, did not mean to come off that way. I personally am a FireFox fan. I've used it as my primary browser since it was called Phoenix.
Lithium simply has no intention of addressing the current wysiwyg issues with Mozilla. The editor is not Moz friendly, it was written for Internet Explorer originally. We're investigating other, completely different cross browser/platform compatible editors for future releases. Hope that clears things up.

Ah, that makes much more sense. Thanks for addressing that.
