This provides a number of options for advanced searching from within the [[Search box|search box]]. For a full description of the features supported by Zend's Lucene search, see:<br /> <br /> *[http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.search.lucene.query-language.html Zend Programmers Reference Guide, chapter 33.4: Zend_search_Lucene &gt; Query language].<br /> <br /> What follows is a selection of some of the most commonly used tools.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Phrases'''<br /> <br /> *Use double quotes to search phrases. E.g. search ''&quot;city hall&quot;'' to return records containing these two words together in that exact order.<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Boolean operators'''<br /> <br /> *Use AND to combine search terms to '''narrow''' your search: e.g. search ''vancouver AND &quot;city hall&quot;'' to return only descriptions that contain '''both''' search terms.<br /> <br /> *Use OR to to combine search terms to '''broaden''' your search: e.g. search ''vancouver OR &quot;city hall&quot;'' to return descriptions that contain '''either''' search term.<br /> <br /> *Use AND NOT to '''exclude''' terms: e.g. search ''vancouver AND NOT &quot;city hall&quot;'' to return descriptions that include ''vancouver'' but do '''not''' contain the phrase ''&quot;city hall&quot;''.<br /> <br /> *Boolean operators can be upper- or lowercase.<br /> <br /> *Other Boolean operators are available; see [http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.search.lucene.query-language.html Zend's documentation].<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Fields'''<br /> <br /> *You can restrict your search to specific [[Field|fields]] by typing the [[Field|field]] name followed by a colon ( : ) and the search text (''fieldName:searchText'').<br /> <br /> * E.g. search ''title:city'' to return descriptions which include the word ''city'' in the title.<br /> <br /> *You must enter the exact [[field|field]] name. These are not always intuitive nor do they necessarily correspond to the [[Field label|field label]] that appears on screen. <br /> <br /> *For the list of searchable [[field|fields]] and their names, see [[DCB-4.3|DCB-4.3 Field names for advanced search]].</div>
