    How to search this forum to get better results

    if you are searching the community and can not find what you are looking for, you can use Google instead to qualify your search better.

    To do this, go to www.google.co.uk, click on advanced search

    on the next page - FIND

    with all of the words - this will allow you to specify several words that must be in the result (actinic community search does not have this)

    with the exact phrase - this will allow you to specify an exact phrase to search on (actinic community search does not have this)

    with at least one of the words - this is the same as the community search that often brings back too many results

    without the words - for this exercise this is useless


    under DOMAIN type in community.actinic.com

    ************** using inbuilt community search

    You can search for 3 letter words simply by adding and asterisk after it - such as: php*
