Hi Folks,

I have a FrontPage discussion web that uses The Web Wiz Forums (A wonderful product and many many kudos to Borg!!)

One of the forum moderators pointed out that if you do a search in the message body for the word delete...it will come back with no results..however if you try using del or delet...then those letters will indeed be highlighted as portions of the words delete or deleted and show results.

Does anyone know of a reason for this? If you would like to try it out here's a page that has the word delete in it several times in the message body:

http://www.timeforweb.com/frontpage/forum_posts.asp?TID=1095&PN=1 - http://www.timeforweb.com/frontpage/forum_posts.asp?TID=1095 &PN=1

Search for the word delete however will show no results. I also tried this on the forums here..same thing...delete comes back with no results..but del comes back with many.

TIA!

Joe

The word delete is formatted on the search to prevent SQL injections. What you can do is format the same word on all your posts. Just one of the letter is formatted to HTML codes, I'm not sure which one. Also UPDATE, INSERT, SET, and other words are formatted too.

Thanks FeRnAN!

I suspected it might be something like that..I appreciate your help in confirming it. Thanks again!
