    On which page was word found ?

    If I ever search for a specific word, and its found in a huge long thread, I don't wanna bother going through the few hundred pages it might have to find that specific word.

    When the results come back there should be an option to jump directly to that page that the word was on.

    Good idea, Jamie. It's a ballache.

    Yes but you still only get maybe 15 or so posts on each page. Thats useless on a 700 page thread !

    so what would you recommend? if you're looking for a particulary word and VBF finds it in 700 different posts, how would you determine which you wanted and which you didn't?

    I must be completely mad, you are describing what "Show as posts" option already does...what is wrong with that?
