Dows anyone knows how to include + sign while using search engine like google or yahoo,as + sign has special meaning for them so it exclude that from search :(
The - excludes words from the search. The + is an and. And they process it by parsing the string or using regular expressions.
thanks for reply, what i was looking for is for example i want to search something related to "Tree view's + image" (i.e node expand) so how can i include phrase in my search query so seach engine will return me all result that has "+" symbol in it?
in that particular case you should search for "Tree view expand node image" or "tree view expand icon" or "tree view expand indicator" ....

well that was just example,anyway thanks for you time.Seems its not possible to include +,- as search criteria.
What is it that you actually need the sign for? There is no reason I can think of other than searching for a mathematical formula? And you would really be searching for it by entering it into a Google search box?
well ione of the example i gave above other could be + sign in DataGrid when you show Parent - Child relation and as you mentioned mathematical formulas and i noticed most of the memeber use + rather than word like expand while posting in forum like VBF and other so just thought will be be easy to search those thread using search engine..
That's probably a limitation for now, you'd really need to know what that thing's name is to search for it. Which can be a little frustrating. For example, not everyone will know that ~ is a tilde, but it's used in ASP.NET. It's just difficult finding information about it without asking or knowing what it's called. :D
