Controlling Proximity

Mastering the usage of proximity gives the ability to locate answers with greater precision. The Webinator input form gives you several options to control the search proximity:

line: All query terms must occur on the same line
sentence: Query items should all reside within the same sentence
paragraph: Within the same paragraph or text block
page: All items must occur within same HTML document (the default)

A bar-graph display will be shown any time a ranking search was performed (eg. all searches except Show Parents).
