Just for kicks and giggles and that fact that I have an iPhone I decided to go to simple search and ask for I89 and 5 miles and got the same thing as tiggs.

1) tiggs is not going insane
2) I don't think Ryan's test counts since it wasn't on an iPhone
3) safari has got problems

Just for kicks I thought I'd try this too.

I followed the same instructions and I have only 131 listings, active and unknown, along this route. I am using an IPhone 3GS with v 4.3.4, and Safari as the browser.

This was the entire route - http://www.atlasquest.com/results.html?gTypeId=1;gSort=5;gSubFlags=8;gTitle=Along+I-89+%28offpath+%26lt%3B+5+mi%29;gCoord=76,0,10000;gRad=5;gLocation=ALONG+I-89

you can tap on the pin and then on its arrow to view the clue for that box.

i didn't know that. . . learn something new every day. thanks for the info!!

see, now, ss, your little codey thing is definitely different than mine was - my SubFlags were 56 and there was no Along+I-89 in there anywhere (i know cuz i typed it into my reply by hand! LOL)

And my iPhone is a 4, so maybe the version of Safari is different?

Although, just to be fair to Ryan, when i did it the way he suggested - by going to Simple Search, then Location-Based Search, and typing in "Along I-89", i got the same result you did, ss: the right one. Try doing the trip search instead - that one is MUCH more fun!! (and the one we're all talking about)

peace, tigs

Okay, I thought I was losing *my* mind. I did the simple, trip search before. I went back to my phone. If I don't log into my AQ account, I do get 24+ pages of results. If you don't log in (3GS) you don't have the option to put in the starting and end points. Try logging in and see if you don't get different results.

1) tiggs is not going insane

Never said she was. =) I suspect it's a browser problem, though--so far as I can tell, all of the newest browsers support that trip planner search on the simple search page just fine. It's the older browsers where things might break.

And while I don't have a good solution for older browsers, with a little thought, I managed to update that particular search so at least if the JavaScript that makes those start and end points fails, at least it'll show all of the boxes along the selected route.

So if you try your iPhone now, "tiggs," you should get the boxes along I-89. You won't be able to select a start or end point with that browser--I'm not sure how to fix the JavaScript to make it work for your particular browser version--but at least the routes should work correctly! As a great designer once said, "It fails gracefully." =)
