suggestion - show search string in search results
#1
I noticed that when I use the search bar to find something in the forums, 

for example, "read image file into memory", 

that after you click Search and the results are displayed, the search string is nowhere to be seen. 

The URL is no help either, because instead of the search terms, just it contains some ID, for example 
Code: (Select All)
https://qb64phoenix.com/forum/search.php?action=results&sid=87e359e46ab483cc3b0f10a8e9f25f0b&sortby=&order=desc

So to remember what it was you were searching for, you have to click Back in the browser, and see what's in the Search box. 

Would it be possible to show the original search string on the search results page? 

Because when I'm researching how to do things for a project, I might have 5 or more searches open in the browser, and it would be helpful to be able to, at a glance, see what I was looking for in each tab.

I refer you back to my Ctrl+a, Ctrl+c method.  Big Grin

Yeah the coders dropped the ball on that one. I don't see anyway to preserve the search query in settings...

Click to enlarge. You don't even have to Ctrl+a, Ctrl+c!
