How to clear the searched highlighting on Neowin?


Recommended Posts

I've searched for the words Vista and Firefox using the Search Neowin box at the top of the forums.

All the words now appear to be highlighted in bright yellow and i can't seem to remove this even after removing the cookie and rebooting. It happens in Firefox and IE7 even though i don't use IE7.

I'm sure it's just a very simple option on Neowin somewhere that i don't know about.

I'm on windows Vista if that makes any difference.

Thanks for any help.

p.s Nothing is highlighted when i login using my laptop, it's just on the desktop i did the search with.

K so taking your example and the first link, all I'd do is take the original URL:

https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...l=vista+firefox

and remove the end bit that says "&hl=vista+firefox"

That's wha I'd do, but there might be a permanent option somewhere.

Thanks that fixed it, i didn't realise it was in the URL which i had saved and was using to test. :)
