|

OK, so I wanted to search the forums for posts containing the string .
I tried entering each of the following into the search field: net.lo, 'net.lo', "net.lo", net\.lo, and many more combinations on the same theme, but it allways seems to return posts containing the string "net" AND/OR "lo".
Ideas anyone?
Cheers,
Paul. |

Unfortunately, search requires a minimum of 3 letters. The "." seperates net from lo, so lo becomes only 2. The only alternative I can think of is to search for loopback. _________________ lolgov. 'cause where we're going, you don't have civil liberties.
