Problem with search function

Since the hack, I've been having a problem with searches -- all the highlighted terms are displayed in a gray that exactly matches the background color of every other post, making the relevant words invisible or hard to read. Is this just me, or are others having a problem with this?

Me too.

I was accustomed to the search term being highlighted in reddish-brown (same color as links).

Best,
Ron

Until Clinton has a chance to address this, as a short-term workaround, just delete the "&highlight=whatever" part of the URL. This will at least take away the grey highlighting and let you see the words, but they won't be highlighted at all. It's annoying, but far less so (in my opinion) than having half of your search terms disappear.
