Hi
Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong. I've read up on using boolean searches but just can't get it working.
I just tried it on shopwindow.com in case I had something wrong on my site but can't get it working there either.
Say you want to search for "hammer"
On shopwindow.com you get loads of results including Hammer films.
So to exclude these, I tried using a ! for not, as detailed in other posts here like this:
hammer !films
But that gave me only results for both
So I'm puzzled. How can I exclude "films" from the results.
I guess I'm doing something fundamentally wrong. Any help would be great
Thanks
