Why doesn't search work for me on my tablet?

[HotFry]

I can't be the first to have this issue and it's driving me nuts.

I did a search, using my laptop, and couldn't find anything. I like to cruise this and other forums using my Samsung Galaxy tablet that's only a year old. When ever I try to use the search function as soon as I tap the box where I'm supposed to type in my search the box disappears like I closed it. It's the same on all the forums.

WTF!

Is it because I don't use Tapatalk or whatever its called?

Sorry if this has been covered.

If you don't like the search function on your tablet then you will HATE it on tapatalk!

I have the same problem with my samsung pad. I usually just google what I'm looking for and add garage journal to it.

Its a mobile issue. There's a few others as well. But do like the above and use a search engine.

Example f80 ratchet search

F80 site: garagejournal.com

Odd, search works on my iPhone but using the smaller screen *****.

In this case I did try a google search before starting this thread but I didn't add the site. I've read that before about putting the name of the site in but I always forget.

Thanks all.
