G'day,
minor niggle number 2 (or is that 3?):
When searching the set guide on lugnet, You can't always find the set
information from peeron. For example:
http://guide.lugnet.com/set/?q=260-270
returns a result on only "VW 1200 Limousine with Garage" (set 261)...and the
sets found are not the one listed, being sets 1200-1 and 1200-2.
Is there a way of fixing this, so that users aren't reliant on opening the
individual pages for each set to see if an inventory or instructions are
available.
Of course, this may be going in a different direction from that you wish the
software to work.

| (...) The problem is that it only looks up 4 digit numbers, or numbers in the form of nnnn-n. Oh, and it ignores numbers between 1900-2100. I could easily make it look at 3 digit numbers as well, but you'd end up with that many more false-positives. (...) (18 years ago, 18-Oct-06, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
