You can use the "Lyrics and Knowledge Search" to search for, and find, URLs in the Forum, even when they're hidden behind links and you wouldn't normally see them. For example, if you want to see all the times somebody has posted a link to The Record Lady's All-Time Country Favorites, you can search for "recordlady.webgcs.com" and you will find links that looks like this: Record Lady as well as links that look like this: Click here. It doesn't work if you search for "http://recordlady.webgcs.com" or "recordlady.webgcs.com/main2.htm". Apparently the "/" marks queer the deal. |

From: MMario if you KNOW a particular html tag such as font color=purple is in the text - use that (color=purple) to search on. combined with other search features it can sometimes narrow a search down by a large percentage. |

AND - are there any other specifics where it might be useful to us other than just when we recall an unusually formatted posting e.g. purple text in a thread? Quack! Geoff. |
