I use Google for searches. After receiving search results there are additional options along the left sidebar. The "Timeline" feature takes the search results and sorts them chronologically and display the results on a timeline. This feature used to work fine in Firefox. Now after receiving search results when I press the "Timeline" option Google tells me that my search "did not match any documents."

I assumed the problem was with Google but when I finally tested it in Internet Explorer I discovered that the Timeline feature worked fine. The same exact URL in IE properly displays the Timeline sorted results but when pasted into Firefox it produces no results.

Please explain what could be causing this or I may have to switch browsers which I'd hate to do. Thanks.

Here is an example of a Google Timeline search request that produces no matching documents: "http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUS287&=&q=mozilla+firefox+reviews&btnG=Google+Search&aq=f&oq=#q=mozilla+firefox+reviews&hl=en&tbo=1&rlz=1G1GGLQ_ENUS287&output=search&source=lnt&tbs=tl:1&sa=X&ei=W20_Tf_2OoragAeJ0LG8Aw&ved=0CA8QpwUoBA&fp=d99ec83a3d63f24"

Thank you cor-el. Your suggestion put me on the wrong path. I discovered the problem had something to do with my Google account settings. Finally after clearing my Google web history the problem resolved. I appreciate the push in the right direction.
