Search Engine

Why a search function on the forum would be good

[DavidS_UK]

As a newbie, joined all of 10 minutes ago, I didn't really want to ask a question that I know will have been asked before, but, like the rest of us, really don't have the luxury of spending maybe 3-4 hours running through all the threads on the CSS forum to see if i can find the answer.

Hence i would think that a search option across the forum threads would be very useful, especially for newbies.

Thanks

Welcome to WW David. There is a search function. Look at the options at the top of the page, beside the WW logo.

control panel, logout, search, glossary, subscribe, help, library, PubCon, announcements , recent posts, unanswered posts

Ohhh Don't I feel a fool!

Thanks - what that tells me is that I have become so used to looking for the google-like little search text box thingy that i don't even read the headings anymore. I must think about how that would affect visitors hitting my website.... hmmmm

Thanks for your help.

some people find the google site search easier/better

search google: site:WebmasterWorld.com searchterm

Actually the search function in here is not all that obvious. Many people miss it and it probably should be more obvious.
