Search Feature For Crossing Pages...

Post by TrickyMario7654 » Sun Nov 13, 2016 12:27 am

I'm wondering if it's possible to add a search feature onto the crossing pages? It will be helpful in case if we forget what town a certain crossing's in or vice versa...

It's entirely possible, but it would require a complete rewrite of the whole site to be able to perform such queries. Each page on the site (not the forum) is built entirely in HTML, which is just a base to webpage design as a whole.

You could always search the site itself through Google by doing a search like site:rxrsignals.com "safetran type 1", and the results would be this:
https://www.google.com/#q=site:rxrsigna ... +type+1%22

Well, I suppose we could make a page with an embedded custom Google search bar on it.
They/Them for me, please.

That could work...
