Hi Sean, Almost. You are using the Search Box that is at the top of every page on connect. Not the IE8 specific search box that is only on the IE8 Feedback page. 1. Logon and go to the IE8 feedback page. 2. Click the 'Feedback' menu button on the lhs. You should see 2 search boxes on the page. One (at the top rhs) for site searches and one (below it) for IE feedback searches. Use the IE8 feedback search. When the search results are displayed you should THEN see the "Submit Feedback" button at the bottom lhs. Regards.
