am I doing something wrong with the search, or is it just not very specific?

searching something like "diet pill" throws up everything with the word "diet" or the word "pill" in it, which isn't very helpful!

    I noticed that, but thought I was doing something wrong.

    It did used to be a lot more specific though...

    well they should, but given the results I'm getting, it doesnt seem to identify that I want the whole string rather than the individual terms...

    Im so glad someone else posted this, as I thought I was being a bit of a tool. Apparently not :chin:

    Doing the " " thing doesn't seem to make much difference to me.

    Sorry the search doesn't seem to allow boolian terms - when I have a chance I'll look around for a possible search plug-in

    Right they should, maybe, be working now - if not they will be tomorrow.
