I don't think it would be too complicated to implement, even though the code
is outdated, a search feature for when I search

0142* or 142* on the top search bar (with the drop down on My Inventory) to be
able to bring up remarks. It gets annoying having to go to the inventory tab,
check the dot, then type it in every time. I know remarks are inefficient, but
I need them for my current storage system.

I agree, this would be VERY useful.
I'd also like to see lot numbers searchable from the top search bar.

I agree - this would be great! Or even if I could change the default of the search
screen so that I don't have to check the dot, that would work too.

I am curious though - you mention remarks are inefficient. How else could you
identify the lot location?

Thank you!

Try this:

http://www.goatleg.com/invsearch.html

It loads your inventory page into an iframe with a search box in a separate frame
at the top. The search box lets you search by either comments or remarks, and
will stay at the default you select until you change it - no need to re-enter
the search type every time.

No password or inventory information gets sent to or through goatleg.com, so
it's just as secure as Bricklink itself. If you want, you can copy the code
for it at http://www.goatleg.com/tools.html and save it to your own desktop so
you can use it without having to go to goatleg.
