Website Help Search  

 

The Orixa website offers a very simple, but slightly "techie" way to search for help 

Simply type some search text into the browser address after a "/" character, (as shown at 1. in the image) and the website will return help-information from database.

Note that you don't need to type very much. The help-database is indexed on simple key-words not long phrases. If you type too much, no information will be returned.
