    Works for me:
    http://www.postgresql.org/search.cgi?q=transaction&m=all&wm=wrd&ul=http%
    3A%2F%2Ftechdocs.postgresql.org%2F&wf=222210
    
    Or do you mean the old Google one?
    
    Regards, Dave.

    I'm going to guess and say, "yes".  Since the "old google one" is the
    only search mechanism that I've seen.  I'm surprised to read that there
    is another mechanism.  Clicking on "search" takes you to the only search
    option that I've seen, which is the "search by google" one.
    
    http://www.postgresql.org -> Techdocs -> http://techdocs.postgresql.org/
    = google search.  Clicking on the "Searchable Docs" takes you back to
    the same page (google search).
    
    Perhaps the "old google one" can be done away with as your results page
    has a nice look and certainly was much more effective.
