Evaluation Questionaire Layout and Forum Search Engine

 
Every website has customer surveys with no consistency as to whether good to bad is right to left or left to right leading to selecting the wrong values when filling out many surveys. Microsoft adds a hyphenated descriptor to the 0 value and the 10 value in their surveys to keep from selecting the wrong value which would be good practice for Lulu surveys or all surveys for that matter.
Using FAQ forums to find answers is looking for a needle in a haystack. Some super coder should come up with a search engine that analyzes whole sentences to select results from forums.

Some super coder should come up with a search engine that analyzes whole sentences to select results from forums.
One did, a long time ago. It started with text-only games on PCs. Each new generation was able to understand more and more words up to complete sentences. You did have to be careful how you typed though. "Kill grey elf" would often get the reply "kill grey elf with what?"  "Kill which grey elf with what?" "Are you sure you wish to do that?" 
Then someone created  Boolean logic into the equation. I think Ask Jeeves was the first searchengine to use it. You could ask it entire questions and it understood them, unlike most searchengines that can only understand up to 3 words even if you use , between some.
But it has always mattered what you actually type in to a search engine.
But it can be annoying when people hit forums via searchengine results because they end up posting in threads years old or subjects that are only 10% to do with what they searched for.

  • How do i get Google and yahoo search engines to stay on Top Sites?

    How can I get Google and Yahoo search engines to stay on "Top Sites"?

    You pin the site to the top sites tiles
    1. Hover your cursor over the site on top sites you want
    2. Wait for the two buttons to show up in the top left corner
    3. Tap the one with the pin so it highlights in blue

  • Only Yahoo and Bing appear in the search box and the Search engine manager only shows them too.

    No matter what I try, only Yahoo and Bing search engines appear in the search box top right on Firefox. The Search engine manager only shows these two engines as well. I want to add Goggle and have not been able to. The default restore in the Search engine Manager is "Greyed out". What can I do to fix this ?

    If those search engines are also missing in the searchplugins folder in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\) then a (re)install should restore them.
    If they are present then try to delete search.sqlite and search.json in the Firefox Profile Folder.

  • How can I restore the search bar drop down list and current search engine icon as it was in FF version 33?

    Is there a way to restore the search bar from version 33?
    I like seeing which search engine I have selected and the ability to change it with a drop down list BEFORE I highlight text, right-click, and select ' Search Google for "xxxx" '
    Any way to roll back this latest "improvement"?

    If you miss being able to switch search engines without going
    crazy with menus, try this out;
    '''[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/context-search/ Context Search]''' {web link}
    Expands the context menu's 'Search for' item into a list of
    installed search engines, allowing you to choose the engine
    you want to use for each search.

  • HT4623 I have just updated to the latest ipad setting and my search engine no longer functions, please help.

    I should like to know if this may be a problem with the latest update iOS 7.1 and how can I correct it ,please. Thank you for your help.Rensah

    Hi JimHdk
    I was attempting to use google to find information.  Google stopped working for at least half an hour. I decided to plug the ipad in to recharge as the battery was below 50% and left it. Later, On restarting the ipad I discovered that the search engine was, and still is, working.
    I have heard that previous updates have caused problems to iPads etc and considered that this might have happened with this update, despite being unaffected on previous updates.
    My ipad is fully working now but I am curious to know why it happened as it has never stopped working since I purchased the ipad 18 months ago.
    I appreciate your contacting me I order to help. Many thanks, Rensah

  • Some of my thread doesn't show in "Forum Search" engine

    Dear all,
    I try to locate some of my threads in Apex Listener section, where I have at least 3 of them there, but strangely the search engine doesn't return for such query. Other threads that reside in other section do it without any problem. Any advice?
    Best regards,
    Val

    Yes unfortunately it is the only way. Oracle is unable to provide search functionality as it is only a database company, so it is recommended that if you need to search for information you should use Google instead.

  • I use bing as my homepage and primary search engine. Why is Firefox periodically showing plugin is disabled on Bing? How do I get it to stop doing this?

    As stated above, Firefox disables some plugin the bing homepage uses. I don't want this plugin disabled. Firefox doesn't tell me what plugin it is. I don't want Firefox, mozilla, or anyone else deciding for me what plugins should and should not be disabled. This is my computer, not yours. How do I stop Firefox from acting like it knows better than me what plugins to disable and when?

    In order to change the default search engine or the order of search engines in the top right search box in Firefox, please perform the following steps:
    #Move the mouse cursor inside the search box at the top right of the Firefox window and click the down arrow next to the provider's logo.
    #If you would like to select another search engine, simply pick the engine from the dropdown list.
    In order to change the order of the search engines, do this:
    #From the dropdown list, select ''Manage Search Engines...''.
    #In the upcoming window, you have all your search engines listed. To change the order, simply click one search engine and then select ''Move up'' or ''Move down'' from the buttons on the right side in order to change the order of the search engines.

  • Safari and Russian Search Engin

    Every time I search in the title bar of Safari Version 6.0 (8536.25) in Mountain Lion, the results come up from a Russian search engine (http://yandex.ru), even when I ask that the default be something like Yahoo. Any idea how I can change that? I don't want to use Google anymore because of the search tracking but I find going through a Russian ISP somewhat disconcerting.

    Actually, I didn't mean to pose a question but search the discussions. I just did a search and the solution there was to delete the extension Omnibar, which includes the Russian search engine. Problem solved.

  • Is the forum search engine broken?

    Is it just me or is the search engine in this forum broken? I have tried to search for "Java","System","PrintService" etc. I everytime I get 0 results...

    "Broken"? No. "Not very good"? That's a fair description.
    Maybe the problem is your search. Have you tried different combinations?
    Take "Java" out of the search. This IS a Java forum, after all.
    What does "PrintService" bring back on its own?

  • APEX and web search engines

    I was just wondering if a site built exclusively in Application Express has any disadvantages with regards to search engines. Since an APEX page is somewhat dynamic would a search engine (e.g. Google) still be able to "find it"? Or is it a better idea to build the front page of a site as a static page since people accessing this site from a search engine is very important to the site?

    See if the discussion at Re: is htmldb.oracle.com indexed by google answers your question.

  • Why does the website bar no longer show on firefox and why am i no longer able to get a search engine and firefox symbol/logo on each tab i open.

    All the other versions of firefox used to have a website bar on the top and you used to be able to open a new tab and have multiple websites open at a time and on each one you opened get a firefox symbol/logo and a search engine or website bar however that's no longer the case I don't know if its the new version or not. I used to also be able to do a search and open multiple websites in multiple tabs however that's no longer the case I don't know if its a bug or if its something new with firefox or newer versions.

    Make sure that toolbars like the "Navigation Toolbar" and the "Bookmarks Toolbar" are visible: "View > Toolbars"
    * If items are missing then open the Customize window via "View > Toolbars > Customize" or via "Firefox > Options > Toolbar Layout"
    * If a missing item is in the toolbar palette then drag it back from the Customize window on the toolbar
    * If you do not see an item on a toolbar and in the toolbar palette then click the "Restore Default Set" button to restore the default toolbar set up.

  • Why is there a one-inch gap between FF logo and search engines?(I'm using FF4).

    I recently downloaded FF 4.I'm not technically savvy,and was a bit confused to see a drop down menu and the word "Firefox".
    I didn't like the new set-up and managed to delete it, in favor of the logo.
    Now,the opening page is in the background and there is a one-inch gap between the logo and the search engine.Is there a way to have a space reduction?
    F11 is NOT a resolution.

    You can make FF4 look like FF3 by doing the following.<br><br>
    * Right click a blank part of the tab bar and click "Tabs on top" to remove the checkmark. Tabs will subsequently reappear below the search bar.<br><br>
    * Repeat the same steps, but click the top one called "Menu bar". This will reinstate the text links at the top.<br><br>
    * To rearrange the layout, repeat the same steps again and choose "Customize". A panel will open and while that remains onscreen, you can move elements like toolbars, buttons etc around and place them anywhere you wish. You can also drag anything you don't like into that panel and add anything you want by dragging it out of there.<br><br>
    * To replace the status bar at the foot of the page, install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/status-4-evar/<br><br>
