Here's a question. I wanted to search the forums for the words "quote of the day", but techspot won't use the words quote, of, the.
How do I stop this?

Just as you did in this post - enclose the whole of your term in quotation marks.

The only post you'll likely find is your own though.

Thanks man.

It won't work for just the word quote.

I would imagine it's because whenever the [quote] vB tag is used, the word "quote:" is prefixed to the quoted text, and so the results it would turn up on its own would be useless.

So there's no hope?

depends - in what context do you need to use it - what are you searching for? something specific?

There was this great post I read a while ago and it had a "Quote of the Day"
taken off a site on the internet. I can't remember who did it. I wanted to copy and paste the quote into bebo (I'd give him credit, obviously). All I can remember is quote of the day, and how good it was.

Just googled it and I'm afraid it doesn't seem to know of any such post on techspot, unless this is thew one you were after...
