looking for a match of the complete contents of the

<title>Using Multiple Search Phrases</title>

<para>
|
|
It's possible to change this behavior by enclosing portions of the
|
|
search string within double quotes. Rivendell will then treat each
|
|
quote-enclosed section as being its own search clause, with the results
|
|
of each clause logically OR'd together in the results.
|
|
A few examples will make this clear. Consider the following set of
|
|
carts, contained in a group called
|
|
<computeroutput>TEMP</computeroutput>.

We'd like to narrow the view down to show only carts where
|
|
'Baker' appears in the
|
|
<computeroutput>Artist</computeroutput> field. Entering 'baker'
|
|
into the <computeroutput>Filter</computeroutput> gets us:

This does show us cart number 10588 ('Sweet Love', by
|
|
'Anita Baker'), but also 10008 ('Baker Street',
|
|
by 'Gerry Rafferty'), because of the inadvertent match in
|
|
the <computeroutput>Title</computeroutput> field. We can eliminate this
|
|
by specifying the <computeroutput>Filter</computeroutput> more
|
|
precisely, changing 'baker' to 'anita baker'.

Now let's try placing each search word in double-quotes:
|
|
"anita" "baker". What will happen?

The 'Baker Street' cart (number 10008) has returned, because
|
|
we split the search phrase into two sub-phrases by use of the quotes.
|
|
It's as it we ran two searches; one with 'anita' and another with
|
|
'baker' and then OR'd the two together into one result set.

<para>
|
|
If one or more integer numbers in the range <userinput>1</userinput>
|
|
through <userinput>999999</userinput> (inclusive) is included in a
|
|
search clause, instead of being search for the textual metadata fields,
|
|
it will be treated as a Rivendell cart number. To search
|
|
for a literal number in the Library textual metadata fields, enclose
|
|
the numeral in quotes --e.g. <userinput>"123456"</userinput>
|
|
rather than <userinput>123456</userinput>.
|
|
</para>

Returning to our examples, we simply enter '25' into the filter:

<para>
|
|
We get cart 25 ('Siren Song'), even though there is no '25' in any of
|
|
the text metadata fields. Next we surround the '25' with double-quotes:
|
|
</para>

|

We see that the double-quotes overrides the special cart-number
|
|
detection.
