I have had the same problem when waiting for a drop-down list. I found .... accidently... that if you double click it works better. There is nothing to tell you that. Single clicks often eliminate your search criteria, and you have to start over. When a record is judged unconfirmed, perhaps it could go to a special section of unconfirmed records. Why clutter the working records?

I typed Chester County into the Checklists search box. Nothing happened for 3 minutes so I decided to work on something else while I waited for the search. Clicking on anything, even another program wiped the search box clean. I tried it 5 times with the same result. I left for awhile and tried again and then it worked fine. It might be easier to use if there was a "search" button to press so the user has an idea that it should be working. That goes for any of the automatic search boxes. I typed "blue" into the Photo Gallery search box and a bunch of results popped up. I typed "blue" into the Field Guide search box and nothing happened. Using the examples given on the Field Guide page I searched anax, green, juni, Anax junius and nax j. Only anax and Anax junius yielded results. All of the examples should have worked but even if they weren't supposed to, there was nothing to tell me that my search had failed. FYI, all the examples did work on the Photo Gallery page.
