how to search for terms with dash/hyphen?

#1 Post by basketb » Wed Jan 07, 2009 5:08 pm

Does anyone know how I can search for a term that contains a hyphen, like blu-ray?
"blu-ray" (with or without the quotes) does not find any matching posts/threads, "blu ray" does (even the ones containing "blu-ray" :wink:).

Try searching for "blu and ray" without the apostrophes.

Or an alternate solution is to use Google searching for:
