Please include a listing or point to a listing of ALL BOOLEAN AND OTHER OPERATIVES for the Forum search function.

Searching on 2-M-1 is problematic for our forum software because '-' is not considered a word character, instead it tells the search to exclude any results with the word following the -. I'm working on 2 things: a short term workaround for this issue and a long term replacement for our search indexer.

If you search for Homers Notes, that's the same as searching for Homer OR Notes. To search for that phrase you would put quotes around it. To search for Homer AND notes, you can type just that.

If you want all the nitty gritty details for our boolean search syntax, you can read through this page:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/...t-boolean.html

The last and probably most useful solution for this is google. We've opened up our forum so it's readable to the world, including google (I hear they're pretty good at this whole search engine thing).

Enter this at google, and you'll get pretty good results: "2-M-1" site:www.lynnblakegolf.com
