Perhaps some of you like to use Google search engine. You can use it to search on an individual site as well as the entire WWW. To search at this site, things will work easier if you have the Goggle toolbar (get that free from Google).
Go to JP1 forum and click on "Search Web" on the Goggle Toolbar. From the dropdown select "Current Site". You will be given the Goggle Search box which has the following string in it "site:www.hifi-remote.com".
Place insertion cursor at the beginning of the string, type in the text you want to search for and then click "Google Search". For example if I wanted information on RCU810 remotes I would type "RCU810" at the beginning of the string "RCU810 site:www.hifi-remote.com".
Why go to this trouble when this site already has a search feature? It's entirely a matter of preference, but if you've used a certain search engine like Google you can use delimiters in your searches on individual websites just as you would a general WWW search. It's just one less thing that you have to learn. _________________ HGH |

If you have the Google toolbar installed, all you have to do is type your query in the "search" box (the text field in the toolbar), and then pull down the dropdown menu next to "Search Web" and select "Current Site".... this works for every site, and avoids the step of searching the current site with a blank query, then needing to add your query on the next page.
Or, you can configure the toolbar to have discrete buttons for the various types of searches, precluding the need for the dropdown menu... |
