advanced search problem

[+Tsegi Mike and Desert Viking]

I used advanced search to look for caches hidden by a user. I entered the name and clicked search. Since I had gotten the name wrong, it didnt pull up caches. All normal so far. Then I tried to enter a new name and there was no place to enter any name. I clicked search and it kept pulling up a page to search for caches by username hidden without letting me enter a name anywhere. The only way I could do so was to go back to hide and seek and then click advanced search.

This just may be a compatibility problem. Strange things happening as of late. Try the solution pointed out in these threads:

Thanks but I do not use IE. Hate it lol. I use chrome. The glitch is happening to me with windows 7 and chrome.

This is with Firefox 19.0.2, with no scripts or ad blockers running: It does appear to be a bug.

I am not able to repro this in either Chrome 25 or Firefox 19.0.2. Is there a step I'm missing? I'm just searching for all caches using a non-existent username. I get the message that the username doesn't exist, but I still have the field available to enter a different one. Does the problem clear up if you clear your browser cache? Are you running any add-ons?

I was able to reproduce it by using the "Hidden by Username" field on "Hide and Seek...", not going directly to Advanced Search. I've now reproduced it on FF19 and iOS6 Safari.

Ah, I started from Advanced Search per the OP. I can repro if I start from Hide & Seek. Thanks!
