  • Searching for terms with subscripts and superscripts in them...

    On my site, there are various references to CO2 (carbon dioxide) and similar. This is coded like this:

    Code:
    CO<sub>2</sub>
    When someone enters "CO2" in the search box, however, it returns no results. Is there a way to make it recognise these terms?

    Cheers.

    Several ways in fact.

    Make a synonym in the Zoom configuration.
    CO2 = CO
    (but this has the side effect or matching carbon monoxide)

    Better would be to include CO2 in the page meta data, or elsewhere on the page, without the superscript.

      We're adding support for <sub> and <sup> tags in the next patch build (V6.0 build 1026) so that CO<sub>2</sub> will be indexed as CO2. Stay tuned for that (download will be made available here)
