There are a couple of things to be beware of before using this board's search function.
Proboard in its wisdom decided to discard any words less than 4 letters long. This creates some difficulties for us since we deal with a lot of Chinese names which can be as short as two letters. An example is a search for Chen Hui would return results for Chen only.
Searches done with Chinese characters are far from acceptable. From my limited experiments it seems the search engine acts one character only. Any other search criteria such as match phrase or all words returns a nil result.
