Czernowitzers.... Until I find something better, here's a way to search for
material on our website.

Let's suppose you want to search the entire site for 'druker'. Go to
Google: http://google.com and enter in the search box:

"druker" site: czernowitz.ehpes.com
The double quotes are important, don't forget them.

Or if you want to look for a string of words exactly in the order shown,
enclose the entire search term in the double quotes:

"drucker's list" site: czernowitz.ehpes.com

Or if you want to find where Lucca Ginsberg's photos are but don't know
what the text would be, you'd likely want to search for pages that
contain 'lucca' and 'ginsberg' and 'photos' somewhere on the same page.
This is accomplished by placing '.' before and after each word in the
search term as below:

.lucca.ginsberg.photos. site:czernowitz.ehpes.com

My suspicion after doing a little testing is that Google does NOT search
the site at all, but rather searches for what it has already indexed
with it's search robots. This begs the question of whether google
indexes everything on our site or not? A good question -- it appears to
over time.

I hope you find this useful or at least, better than nothing
