Using the search box

Start by entering a keyword in the search box in the sidebar to the left.

• Click on the Go button (or hit Enter on the keyboard) to search for a page title that matches the keyword.

• Click on the Search button to search for both page titles that contain the keyword and pages with text that matches the keyword.

Searches with the Go button

• Enter a keyword and click on the Go button (or hit Enter on the keyboard). If there's a match you'll be redirected to the page whose title matches the keyword.

Example: If you enter the keyword rpoD and click on Go, you'll be redirected to the rpoD:Quickview page.

• If there is no match, you'll be redirected to a page that tells you There is no page titled "keyword". Below this message will be Search Results with:

(i) a list of Article title matches, these are page titles that contain the keyword and

(ii) a list of Page text matches, which are pages containing text that matches the keyword.

Example: If you enter the keyword sigma70 and click on Go, you'll be redirected to the page like the one shown below:

• Go is case sensitive

Searches with the Search button
