The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
I am not experiencing any really noticeable improvement in speed over the current search (maybe its everyone hitting the server at once).
I do like the Extended search options. But I would like to see the In condition to have a default to a title and body, not whole document. If I search on the terms "equal weight Index" then I am getting many matches ( I see matches to the tool bar links, etc.)
I DO LOVE the advanced search term capabilities (see help in the Extended search).
Is there a way to combine the title and body as one search "In" option? Using the Whole body captures too many results.
I prefer the stars to mark relevance. Its quicker for me to scan for the images than a bolded number. After a certain point I will stop using the search results if the stars get to two or one. This is more difficult with the relevance as a numerical value.
I do like the fact that I do not get script errors popping up from the yahoo tools (my IE is set to trap script errors for our own development).
I hope you can replace this with the current search soon.
Thanks, Matt
