Search results redirecting to 127.0.0.1

Hmmmm,
Tough to say if it's my computer or something with the site.

Here is what I can do:
I can click on "more" under New Posts on the left side and when the search results come up, I can click them and pull the threads up.

I can go to User Menu and click my active threads and read those threads.

However, when I use the Search function, the results come up. But, if I click on a thread in the results, it redirects to 127.0.0.1. This just happens to be an Apache server on my system so it was obvious what happened. If I mouse over the threads, it shows the icmag address. If I copy the link location and paste it somewhere, it shows the icmag address.

Can someone test this for me? I only have one computer at my location so can't test it myself. If you go to the search button up top, search for "lsd," the first thread should be "your four words game." What happens when you click that thread?

Just need someone to tell me it works and I will dig further on my end.

Thank you

problem seems to be with LSD any other search works fine
possibly to do with lsd being a unix command to list directory's

somebody came across this one with 'LST' awhile ago - thread

if i remember right, if you remove the 'highlight' bit at the end of the url, it'll work.

Good to know. Thanks guys for checking it out. Looks like "ls" is what breaks it.

Thanks weird. Did you read my post?
"This just happens to be an Apache server on my system ...."
I do sorta know what I'm doing here. But it's good info for others.

i was just letting you know the search was being redirected to your local host

if you were a professional who could put up and administrate a server you would be good enough to put up a client (real or virtual) and test it yourself

sorry your inner geek is so awfully defensive, if you ask me ego trips are a drag

And yet I managed to stand up that Apache Server AND develop against it for the last two years.

I don't understand why you felt it necessary to attack me.
