  Another search suggestion
 
While we're at it, how 'bout a more-powerful search feature?

  Re: Suggestion: FTX webpage Search and Index
 
(...) In general, I think this is a good idea, however, it would be nice to be able to exclude pages from a search (for example, perhaps I want you to come through a particular page before seeing others, or perhaps I'm linking to a page externally).

(...) Why? If a reasonable explanation can be given, a explanation should be given. This is not the military (I get enough of that at work) and user donations drive this site. Therefore I think that if a user request is rejected, a reason for the (...) (21 years ago, 29-Mar-05, to lugnet.admin.suggestions)
