bug in the search
If you type the word "lamps" into the search you are redirected to "http://www.instructables.com/lving/lamps/". Btw how is it possible, that sometimes there is a different number of views on the info page compared to the stats page?

I tried the search and I get redirected to the same page, but for me it comes up with a 404 not found error. FF 3.6.3, XP SP3
Which is correct, because the link is wrong (it's spelled "l-v-i-n-g"). That's the bug.

Thanks, I didn't notice the spelling mistake until I came back today and saw Nacho's comment.
I missed it too, until I tried to figure out why it came back 404.
There have been some interesting studies which show that people usually miss elides when reading normally. That's why copy editors are trained to scan documents backwards instead of forwards -- it prevents the "read what you expect" optimization from kicking in.

. Until StumpChunkman, et al, can fix the problem just edit the URL to include the missing "i" in "living".
I did that, but thought I should mention the bug... Thanks a lot though.
Mentioning the bug was great; thank you! Without bug reports, Staff are very unlikely to know something is wrong.
Or just click the search under "other things to try", which should be prepopulated with "living lamps". Works for me, anyway: Win7/IE8
Thank you! It's been noted, and should be fixed soon.
