I choose a topic listed in the search results, view it and then when I want to go back to the search result list again, Back button doesn't work. It takes me to a "Webpage expired" message and then back to the SEARCH page. How do I go back to the SEARCH RESULTS again?

I find that hitting PF5 and then the Retry button usually works. See if that works for you.

Hello,

Another scheme is that when you have a list of topics matching your search criteria, right-click on one that you want to look at and "open in new window".

Now, the search list is open in one window and the topic in another. Doing this multiple times allows having several topic windows open at the same time and when you are don with them, simply close them.

I find this much quicker than moving forward/backward in one window.

Thanks everyone... Hitting PF5 works for me too.

'Open in new window' is also a good option I didn't think about... Thanks!

Yes, it's the best one, i was always using this. When You do this then to avoid the 'crowed' of no. of windows in the taskbar, go to taskbar properties & select the check box against "Group similar taskbar buttons". All of them will grouped like "GDGs"... icon_wink.gif
