OR searches

Post by **Thunderstone** » Tue Sep 07, 1999 10:48 am

I searched the message archives for this question, but without any luck.

Is it possible to do OR searches? For example, "tomato OR potato"?
Trying that search seems to result in the OR being treated as an AND. It
looks like the Vortex script is not what does the search parsing.

Thanks.

That can be accomplished by using an intersection of 0
e.g.: tomato potato @0

To enable intersection searching, you will have to modify your search
script slightly. You will need to enable
<apicp alintersects 1>

and
<SQL "set likepallmatch=0"></SQL>

Look at the <fpar> function of the default search script where other
settings are adjusted.
