  • AND, OR, NOT in the Searchmatch ***HELP***

    Hello Everybody,

    First of all IŽd like to thank the programmers of WRENSOFT, for there great work.
    The Zoom Search Engine is a great App.

    But Now I want to write you my Problem:

    I want to know if there is any Match-Option to definite not only the AND, OR (search all / any words) things, but the NOT thing.

    Of Course, I cannot make this so:
    Code:
    type="radio" name="zoom_and"
    I want to make this with KEYWORDS LIKE IN THIS FORUM!!!
    I am very sorry for my false English, but I hope you have understood me a bit.

    If you do not know what I know read the Text of the Forum:


    Search for Keywords:
    You can use AND to define words which must be in the results, OR to define words which may be in the result and NOT to define words which should not be in the result. Use * as a wildcard for partial matches
    Yours truly,

    Mr. Flip

    With Zoom the AND and OR functions are done via the radio button selection.

    The default names for these radio button options are,
    Any search words (this give the OR behaviour)
    All search words (this gives the AND behaviour)

    You can specify a negative word, the NOT function, by prefixing the word with a "-" sign.

    In the absence of a radio button selection you can pick the default behaviour from the Zoom configuration window.

    There is no facility to have boolean AND / OR operator within the search phrase itself.

    More details on search options and syntax can be found here,
