Search Results

[Josie]

Need to have search form user "and" rather than "or" when users enter search query. I use the regular FP standard search form. We are using IIS 5, if this matters.

Thanks... Josie

Totally up to the user and not configurable
Provide these instructions for the users:

The text search engine allows queries to be formed from arbitrary Boolean expressions containing the keywords AND, OR, and NOT, and
grouped with parentheses.

For example:
information retrieval
- finds documents containing 'information' or 'retrieval'
information or retrieval
- same as above
information and retrieval
- finds documents containing both 'information' and 'retrieval'
information not retrieval
- finds documents containing 'information' but not 'retrieval'
(information not retrieval) and Web
- finds documents containing 'Web', plus 'information' but not 'retrieval'
web*
- finds documents containing words starting with 'web'

Thanks, for the info.
Since Frontpage search isn't configuarable by much, can

anyone assist in getting a good search script to load in
Frontpage 2000 and running on an IIS 5, server? The main
goal now is to do basic search and allow user query
of "and" and not default to "or". Such as "search query =
outlook web access" not "outlook, or web, or access"

I can have an asp script, or something else simple.

It's like pulling teeth to load any programs on the server
such as apache, cgi, perl, etc.
