CODE: 'Select All' not working | A simple coding fix

Advanced search features have come to the results list, so maybe I need to explain these new and advanced search features. Until then, start a keyword search and explore the new features already added to our search engine for yourself! A few more features and tweaks are still planned, but right now you can already enjoy powerful, precision, keyword and author research features here at MOC Forums.
Enjoy your day, cheers!
