Why not to use a faster server like Binky?

>Body:send http://www.google.com/search?q=3Dmanagement+training+techniques

this is ok, but it means:

management AND training AND techniques

for "management training techniques", if you mean exact match of the
sentence, you need to send for:

%22management+training+techniques%22

you can also exclude some terms using "-" which should be turned into %2d

%22management+training+techniques%22+%2dschools

to exclude schools

the default is 10 or so, you then send for the "next" URL to see the rest

at the bottom of the results page you will see something like this:


                           Result Page:
                                =20
                              1 [30]
                              2 [31]
                            Next page
                                

look for the URLs in References (at bottom)

this is if you are using the URLTEXT command. If you use URLSRC you get
the page in HTML as in your browser. I prefer URLTEXT because it is a
smaller file and you copy the URLs from references.


If you want more hits in one page: for 30 hits use this

http://www.google.com/search?q=3Dxxx+yyy&num=3D30

>What does &op=3Da mean?

in savvysearch?...means option (or operator?) AND (&op=3Da) or option
PHRASE (&op=3Dp) >Has a number or word to be substituted for=A0 "a" ?

NO, "a" means all terms: term1 AND term2 AND term3

To sum up,  your search will be

to:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

body:

urltext
http://www.google.com/search?q=3D%22management+training+techniques%2= 2
urltext=
 http://www.savvysearch.com/search?q=3Dmanagement+training+techniques&op=3
 Dp

note in savvy I used &op=3Dp to match the phrase and not %22 for ""
