Apologies, but my examples are incorrect. The phrasing should be "only if all of the words appear in the title or all of the words appear in the URL". It doesn't work in combination with one word in the title and one word in the URL. So in my above examples, only the last one would match anything (1). Given the above data, let's try a few better examples: "bar baz" - matches (1) and (2) "www hello" - matches (1) and (3) "bar example" - matches (2) Erik --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Chromium-extensions" group.
