Re: author/title results browse screens in silver

[Tom Klingler <tk at kent dot edu>]

This post search limit failure is not happening at Kent State  
(http://kentlink.kent.edu)  and we've been on Silver for quite a while. 
We do not use the media icons.  I wonder if this failure only happens 
if you use the media icons?  I know that doesn't make much sense on the 
face of it, but who knows?  Has anyone who's experienced this 
post-search limit failure, or the author/title search failure tried 
disabling the media icons just for fun?   Or, tried some other switch 
like maybe adjusting the extended wwwoption and/or the browse wwwoption?
