searching help

Use AND, OR, and NOT to create a "search sentence."
For example, flower AND spring will return results that have both "flower" and "spring" within the product name or description. Actually, flower spring will return the same -- all keywords listed without OR, and NOT are required by default. As another example, flower NOT spring will return all results that have "flower," but don't have "spring." Finally, flower OR spring will return all results that have either "flower" or "spring."

 AND, OR, and NOT are case sensitive - they MUST be uppercase.
You can use +, ~ and - as shorthand for AND, OR, and NOT.

Use quotation marks to search for phrases.
For example, "pink posy" will return one product, called "Pink Posy."

Use parentheses for complex search sentences.
For example, spring AND flower OR candy will return all products with "candy" and all results with "spring" and "flower." In this case, the search runs first on "spring AND flower," then looks for "candy." You can use parentheses to be more specific, such as spring AND (flower OR candy). This will then look for flowers or candy that also have the word "spring."

FAQ

• Can I change the layout of the catalog or detail pages?
  Not unless you are very comfortable with HTML and ASP. As far as this product goes, "what you see is what you get," and we do not provide support for changing the existing layout of the listings catalog or listings detail pages. If you are not proficient in HTML, we advise that you do not attempt to modify the layout. If you really want to change the layout, you may order custom work from us to help you change the web page layouts. (Note - everything in this template is "open source." If you are familiar with code, you will be able to modify anything and everything.)
• How do I add more product listings?
  See above!
• Can I add more "fields," like "size," or "color"?
  This will most likely be very difficult for you to do on your own, unless you are very comfortable with HTML and ASP code. You would have to order custom work from us or hire someone else who is comfortable with HTML and ASP code. We are always open to hearing suggestions on how to improve the product, so if you have an idea for a new field that should be added, please let us know at support@johngaltstools.com. If you don't want to wait for a new version, we suggest that you put extra information in the "description" field.
• Do I need to know ASP or HTML to use this template?
  No, you don't. This template is built so that it's easy for you to start using it. We have full instructions on what you need to do. This template is also built "as-is" -- we do not expect you to try to change the catalog layout or detail pages.
• What kind of server can I host this web site on?
  A Microsoft Server with IIS 4.0 or later and ASP 3.0 or later  installed. You may also require some extra assistance from the web server administrator. This is discussed further on the Getting Started page.

• Knife Collecting - The internet provides a market - First, it allows the collector to more easily find (or buy, sell or trade) whatever he/she collects. In this case we're concerned with collecting pocket knives. There are auctions where pocket knives are bought and sold daily. I will provide some links later. If you are looking for a hard to find knife with very specific characteristics, chances are that sooner or later you will find it on the internet.
• Pocket Knives - The internet publicizes market values - Secondly, it's easier than ever before to find out what something is worth. This has an upside and downside for collectors.
• Knife Handles - The internet practically insures that you can find the knife you want to buy, but there may be fewer "bargains" to be found. This is because everyone can see what others are selling for. The internet also practically insures that you can find a buyer for the knife you want to sell, but there may be more competition from other sellers that may hold down the price you can get.
  
  In the old days, if you were the only person in your geographic area with a particular knife for sale, you might get a higher price because the buyer may have to go to great expense just to locate another one. Not so today!
