IE 5.5 on Win98 - have run several searches I've never run before and, no,
the Last Updated time does not change.  But the Last Updated time was not
the current time of my searches to begin with.  It listed the exact same
time some six hours ago for every search I ran over several minutes time.  I
can't interpret the HTML but are you sure that the Last Updated time they
list isn't the time their indexing cycle last completed (or some such)?  It
certainly isn't reporting the time my search was conducted.


Thanx for checking this for me John.  I, too, noticed that the
time at the bottom does not match my search time.  There is also
a time at the top called "current ebay time" or something which
I think is supposed to match the search time.  The problem I'm
having is neither the bottom time, the top time, nor the entire
content of the search results ever change again.  No matter how
much I reload and fludh caches.

Just for kicks, try doing the exact same searches tomorrow
that you did today.  See if the results update.  Mine don't.

Thanx, and Happy New Year!
