Summary
The iATN web forum search feature allows you to quickly locate previous web forum posts. Not only can you locate the post, you can also view the entire discussion thread, even if it took place years ago!
Description
As with the FIX Database search, the web forum searching is also quick and easy. Once you have upgraded your account, simply go to the web forum search page, which looks like this:
- Web Forum Search Page

From the search page, select the web forum you wish to search (Air Conditioning Forum, Shop Management Forum, etc.), enter the keywords you want to find, choose the sort order for the resulting matches, and press the "Go" button. A summary page will be returned containing every post that matches your search criteria, similar to this one:
- Sort Your Search Results

The layout of the web forums search results is similar to the email archive results. You can click on the subject line link and the original post will be displayed.
If you would like to see the post in its original context, you can click on the
icon, and the entire discussion will be displayed in a thread-sorted format (where reply messages are indented beneath the original message). This allows you to see the entire discussion as it originally appeared.
