How to search posts using the 'tags'

I see that many posts have 'tags' associated with them but I can't figure out how you can search for all messages that contain a particular tag.  Am I missing something that's really easy to do?

I'm missing it too.  This forum seems to have been rendered virtually useless.  There is no simple way to search it...or perhaps no way at all.  I'd like to think someone is going to advise on this as there obviously have been a lot of posts.

When the Dell Forums came out, we had this huge tag cloud that kept getting in the way, so that asked them to remove it until they found out how to control it. We would collaspe it and the next time we went somewhere, it was back.

 

Click on a certain tag you want to search about. It will bring up a huge tag board. Each time you click on a tag, it will slowly cut down on what you can select until you have narrowed down your selection. Sometimes I find it easier to use the search bar at the upper right corner, type as many keywords to your problem and it will also narrow down the possibilities.

Ok, so where do I find these tags to click on?

Also, I put some tags on one of my posts, and it seems to come back on my post as one large tag.  Do the tag words have to be separated by commas?  Are there some simple instructions somewhere.  I can't find any.  When I tried to select the "select tags" tab at the bottom of my post entry form, a list came up at the right which wouldn't scroll down and wouldn't go away.  Hmmm?  Browser?

Thanks
