Search Getting Away
Use the form below to search for documents in this Web site
containing specific words or combinations of words. The text search engine will
display a weighted list of matching documents, with better matches shown first.
Each list item is a link to a matching document; if the document has a title it
will be shown, otherwise only the document's file name is displayed. A brief
explanation of the
query language is available, along with examples.
EXAMPLE: Say you want to find a hotel in Phoenix, Arizona. In
the Search for: box, type phoenix hotels. You will get a list of
the pages of Getting Away where you will find the words: phoenix and hotels.
Just as with any search feature, you will probably get 200+ pages that contain
both of those words, with most of the pages containing the word: hotels.
To narrow your search, just type the word phoenix in the Search for:
box. This time, you will get a lot less choices with one of the top pages being
Accommodations in Phoenix. Click on that link and you are on your way. Always
remember, the more simple you make your search, the less pages you will be
directed to. And, if you can't find what you want, you can always email Jim at
Getting Away.
