Cool new DIS feature.

I am a fan of "The DIS" on Facebook and this morning they posted about a new feature for the DIS boards. Its a search function which seems to work pretty well. In order to perform a search now all you have to do is highlight the words with in a post like you are going to copy and paste. When you highlight the words a magnifying glass icon appears. Click on the magnifyier and it opens a separate window with the search results. All the threads containing your search criteria pops up and immediately under the thread title is the Board where the thread is located. It looks to be a pretty effective search. Certainly a huge step forward from the previous search function IMHO.

It does seem to work pretty well. If you want to search on just one word you can put your cursor in the middle of the word and double click. If you want to search a phrase or something like "Tokina 11-16mm" you highlight the whole phrase like a copy/paste.

I get nothing in the results -- just a blank white window.
