Mamma.com Now Supports Search Math

Posted on March 25, 2004

Mamma.com announced that it has enhanced its power search and applied search math functionality. Mamma.com now supports search math, a form of advanced operators used to refine a query with quotations, plus and minus signs. Specifically, quotations ensure exact phrase matches are returned, and plus/minus signs ensure search terms are included or excluded from the results, respectively. Additional features applied to the power search include: customization of the description; length of results; query term highlighting (keywords typed into the search box will be found and highlighted in the results); and customization of the number of results per page (users can select the number of results they would like to see on a results page). Both the option to open results in a new window and query refinement remain available on the power search page.

You can find the Mamma.com search engine at mamma.com.
