When you choose a class, the talent selection doesn't appear in IE7.

Not sure if it's deliberate, but when I select Enhancement DPS it lists that some of the best weapons are 1.5 speed.

In regards to unwanted items showing up in the weighted search, do remember that this new tool is designed to work
with
the existing filters, not replace them. Its purpose is to sort your search results based on the weights attributed to each stat.
However, without any filters in place, it will show you everything in the database with a positive score. If you wish to
limit the speed and weapon type
or
only display spellcaster weapons
this is best done through the use of filters.

Yes, I know this is a work around, although - I was suggesting that by default for enhancement shamans, make a rule/filter that excludes caster weapons, staves, weapons with a speed lower than 2.6 and maybe even 2 handers completely.

You're missing the point. Weights are for sorting; filters are for limiting search results. If you want to restrict the items you see, use the appropriate tool - the filters drop-down. This is not a "work around" as you call it, its a feature that has existed as part of wowhead's search for a long time. Just because they added something new doesn't mean you should stop using the existing functionality.
The weight presets relate directly to sorting items, not filtering them. That is why they're in the weights section. If you would like to see some sort of filtering preset functionality as well, I heartily recommend starting your own thread about it.

Sort of see what I did here? I tried to make speed 100, because it's important to enchancement shamans. Except whenever I set Speed to 100 it defaulted to 0.1.
With the introduction of this weight system, speed became a weight. I haven't messed around enough to get it to use slow speeds as a higher score, but this is close to what I mean.
Sorry if I'm not making a lot of sense.
EDIT: Got it!

This is exactly what I mean. See how now it's making 2.6 weapons better than 1.5 and doing so using a weight rule? I don't exactly know how to make it stop thinking Grip of Mannoroth is so high up though.

The red gem for BM hunters, all hunters for that matter, should be changed to agility, not attack power.

If you increase your weight of agility in the detailed screen the gems will update with the best suited stat (agility as you suggested). See

If you feel that a certain preset sucks, let us know what it should replaced with.

The suggested meta gem is thundering skyfire diamond, should be relentless earthstorm diamond.
And for like some chests pieces all the gems are suggested 10 hit, yellow slots should be 10 hit and red 5 hit 5 agi.
The suggested gems are based on your weights.

Confused about how your score is being totaled?
For an Enhancement Shaman, how can
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=33432
score a 17.79
but
http://www.wowhead.com/?item=35383
score a 33.21
is something off with how the gem slots are added in?
Going to be an awesome feature when you get it all sorted out. Thanks for all the hard work !
What weights did you use? Link 'em.
