Search Field

Macromedia.com has redesigned and it certainly looks alot nicer. Im still baffled why they allow you to his search with an empty field. I mean it's pretty easy to put a check in on the field to say "hey dickhead, enter something to search for"

but then it may be the user friendly way to direct the user to the full search page?? if so then again the search button would see that they searched for nothing and direct them to the full search page without querying the server????

It's like flushing with no poo. useless and a waste of resources. Imagine the toilets of the future. (note: everything in my future dreams talks)
"i suggest a half flush Ash, or even better just walk around a bit and come back as it usually doesn't all come out in one stitting" ---- "you missed a spot" ----- "corn again i see, you cant help yourself can you" --- " i need cleaning!!"

It would also play music while you go to hide any embarressing splash sounds.

I also hate when sites that send your details to the server, only 3-5 seconds later to be told that your password didn't match the second password field. Or that you forgot to fill out your gender. Again it would so much easier for the user to be told straight away using javascript.
