Search Box

Jenix · March 17th, 2008, 11:47 AM

Hello, I really enjoy this site and have learned alot from the little time Ive been on here. I was wondering if there is a seach box that I could search the forums for something that I'm looking for so i don't have to post a new question. Its really difficult to sort through all the post from the hundred or so pages. I can't find a search box anywhere so I'm assuming there isn't one. Thanks Josh

There are many search boxes.

1. On the menu bar
2. On the top right hand side of every forum index
3. On the top right hand side of every thread

The boxes will appear after you click on the words.

you can also search the site with google by going to google and clicking advanced search and entering the domain name (tdpri.com) to return matches within our beloved forum

O my I'm a moron. I guess was looking for a white search box. Could someone delete this thread. I feel like an idiot. Thanks for helping me out.

You don't even have to go to advanced search in google. Just type your search thus:

my search string site:www.tdpri.com

This works for almost any site, it also allows you to search on short strings. I think the forum's search only allows 4 characters and upwards. If you have a search bar in your browser window it's even easier to access.

I have the google toolbar installed in my web browser, so whenever I want to look for something I just type it in and then select 'Search Site' from the dropdown menu.
