Search fix request

[bsobel]

Zuni,

Any chance you can fix the query your doing for the search to allow the " character? (or tell me a secret to make it work?). I was trying to search the for/sale forum for 21" monitors. When searching for 21" the search comes back empty, searching for just 21 returns the right results along with LOTS of additonal things (XP2100+, PC2100, Price Drop 4/21, etc). I look for monitor deals often enough that I've ran into this a couple of times, these time I thought I'd take the time to document it incase you never noticed.

Thanks,
Bill

p.s. Can we please have a security forum

Nope, its an illegal character in almost any full text system. Full text systems are based on words. Anything under 4 characters is ignored, numbers, to, the,he, she. It's phrase based.

Hope that helps
