Ahhhh, I see what you're saying now.
OK, so again we have a failure to communicate. It appears you are equating "Search" to "Find".
re: I was using the browser search
There is no Browser "Search" facility. However, there is a "Find on this page" option on the (IE) "Edit" menu item which I think is what you are referring to.
In Windows, pressing "Ctrl-F" brings up a text box where text you enter can be "found" on the active page. The matching text will be highlighted -- ie: displayed on a colored background.
This means that no matter what text you enter, it will "find" matching text on the page, wherever it is. So, it should find "Last", or "Tuesday", or whatever, quite easily.
The Browser "FIND" facility has nothing to do with SI. It's a "dumb" find, meaning it only finds the text as you entered it. It doesn't interpret "Last Tuesday" to mean "09/16/2014". It should work the same in either the "classic" or the "modern" version of SI.
"Search" facilities are typically more intelligent and powerful than "Find", meaning you can use multiple parameters, exclude items from the results, etc. You can see an example of that in the SI "Tools/Search" and "Advanced Search" dialogs.
But, browsers don't have "Search". They have "Find".
Now, if you're saying the browser "Find" doesn't work in iOS in the modern SI format ... well, that's a big problem. I don't know why it wouldn't work. It's just text. At least I hope it is. FWIW, the browser "Find" works on my Android phone with both formats.
Whatever ... we need to get the original date format restored.
Sure is a pretty day.
