Hey Dave,

Droid X User

Dictionary Used: Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary
error message on dictionary search: ==> keylink could not find a milestone

Question: Is there a way to conduction a subject/topic search in a dictionary?

Steps performed:

1. Opened AYBD
2. Opened the search window by taping the bottom of the screen
3. 'vp 3.834' was already displayed in the search window (I'm guessing that was data for my current page location?!)
4. cleared the search box and typed 'grace'

expected results:
I was expecting to be navigated to the parent level subject reference for the word 'grace'

actual results:
received the error message: ==> keylink could not find a milestone

    When i tap the bottom of my screen, I  don't see a search area...can you do a screen shot for me?

    I don't have the AYBD but tried a search in another dictionary - "Jesus and the Gospels"

    I opened the search area, entered a topic (in this case "Banquet"), pressed Enter and it found it

    I'll try and work out how to do screen shots!

    Now I’m getting some inconsistent results using the search  window in the following IVP dictionaries:

     

    Dictionary of Jesus and the Gospels

    Dictionary of Paul and His Letters

    Dictionary of the Later New Testament and Its Developments

    Dictionary of New Testament Background

    Dictionary of the Old Testament: Pentateuch

    Dictionary of the Old Testament: Historical Books

     

     

    Sometimes I get the resource unavailable error message, other times I get the keylink error, and yet other times I just get redirected to the library display screen.  My search results are very random at this point.

     

    Also the BACK button (on the Droid X, it’s the button next to the search button) often takes me all the way out of the dictionary rather than back (or up) one level in the search hierarchy.
