if we had category search and search the site on every page this might stop some of the repeat postings.

Phantaxus - good point, worth investigating.
If you could use a search engine to connect the question title with your databank, the results page could read;- "We've checked our databank to see if your question has already been answered. The items below seem to fit. � check them out. If the answer you seek is not there, click the RESUBMIT button at the bottom of the page and we'll post your question on the AnswerBank" At the bottom would be the question as originally typed. If the idea is feasible, it would make life easier for the enquirers, as well as less irritating for your regular readers. Hand-searching to find if a question has been asked is tedious and slow � and people new to your sitedon't think to do it, anyway. I only found your site a week ago and already it has affected my life. Not only am I spending lots of time reading the questions and trying to solve the puzzles but the sites recommended by your contributors are treasures themselves. Keep up the good work!
Two minutes after my last posting I noticed the Category Search box. Felt an idiot, even if it confirmed my remark about newbies. Typed "Links" into it and got 41 items, none of which was either of the two relevant postings in Internet & Technology, even though their question titles were "Links" and "links". Maybe I don't understand what Category Search meant. I'm glad I have no ambition to run an interactive website - it must be very frustrating.
"I'm glad I have no ambition to run an interactive website - it must be very frustrating." That's the post of the week, in my opinion!
Many thanksfor the comment. And I've worked out "Category Search" now.
