In some cases clicking on those buttons will give you a permission error. This means that you may be required to login or register on the forum to gain posting privileges.

HOW CAN I SEARCH?
Unless disabled by the administrator, you can search for messages that were posted inside the forum. You can search for a message by specifying one or more keywords you wish to be found and then choosing where to find those keywords. You can either search in subject alone or do a full text search on both the message body and subject. You can also limit your search to a forum of your choice if you do not wish to search in all of the forums.

You can also search for other forum members, either by their login name or email address via the user search form.

WHAT IS THE MEMBER LIST?
The member list is a complete list of all the registered users on a forum. You can sort the list in 3 ways: by login name alphabetically, by number of posts and the date of registration.

The member list also has a search capability, allowing you to find a particular member by either his/her login name or email address.
