Thunderstone Search Appliance Manual

Controlling Proximity

Mastering the usage of proximity gives the ability to locate results with greater precision. The Parametric Search Appliance input form gives you several options to control the search proximity:

line

All query terms must occur on the same line

sentence

Query items should all reside within the same sentence

paragraph

Within the same paragraph or text block

page

All items must occur within same HTML document (the default)

A bar-graph display will be shown any time a ranking search was performed (e.g. all searches except Show Parents).
