<h1>Search Author - Help</h1>

<p>The 'Search Author' program is based on a simple substring test.<br>
The search string <b>Rama</b> matches with
<b>Rama</b>, <b>Raman</b>, <b>Ramakrishnan</b>, ...</p>
<p>If the search string does not contain any uppercase letter,
the test becomes case insensitive.<br>
The search string <b>ley</b> matches with <b>Stanley</b>, <b>Kley</b>,
<b>Ley</b>, <b>Leyman</b>, ...<br>
If you enter <b>Ley</b> the search is more selective: you only get
<b>Ley</b>, <b>Leyman</b>, ...</p>
<p>Special characters like <b>&auml;</b>, <b>&ouml;</b>, <b>&Uuml;</b>, 
<b>&aacute;</b>, <b>&agrave;</b>,
<b>&ecirc;</b>, <b>&ccedil;</b>, 
<b>&oslash;</b>, <b>&aring;</b>, ... are matched by the
corresponding simple characters, <b>&szlig;</b> is matched by <b>ss</b>,
<b>&aelig;</b> by <b>ae</b>.<br>
<b>Muller</b> matches with <b>Muller</b>, <b>M&uuml;ller</b>, ...</p>
<p>If the search string contains any HTML escape code like
<b>&amp;uuml;</b>, <b>&amp;aacute;</b>, ... the mapping
of special characters to simple characters is switched off.<br>
The search string <b>M&amp;uuml;ller</b> matches with <b>M&uuml;ller</b>,
but not with <b>Muller</b>.</p>
<p>If the search string matches exactly one name, you
directly get this person's page.
If several names match, you get a menu with all
matching names.</p>
<p>If your WWW browser does not support form based input
or you don't like it,
you may navigate through the search tree.
In the search tree authors with links to their homepages or
known e-mail addresses are indicated by an asterix.</p>
