HOW TO SEARCH?
Search process consists of four steps:
-
Type a word (or several words) into the "empty field" on Ordinacija.net page,
and then hit the "Search" button (or the "Enter" key on your keyboard).
Search will then look for any "matches" with your query in the Ordinacija.net directory.
-
Modify the search with search criteria (use advanced search).
-
Click on the Search button.
-
Browse through search results.
-
Click on one of the results for detailed view.
Searches can be repeated (or restarted) if your previous search did not generate the desired or
expected results.
Step 1 (typing a keyword) would involve you typing in your keyword
(phrase which you are using to
look for information you are looking for) into the grey area on top,
right next to the little button with the text "Search" on it
.
Step 2 selecting additional options (search criteria) to modify your search (use Advanced search).
Step 3 is probably the simplest. Just click on the search button (located above the options
and to the right of the
keyword field with the text "Search"). After you have clicked on it, wait. Search results should come up
quite quickly (depending on how large the search results are).
Steps 4 and 5 involve browsing through these records and going into the sites that the
records refer to, by clicking on the text link (which is at the top of every record).
This completes your searching process. The process can be repeated or redefined and restarted.
