So typing in &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/search.yahoo.com\/search;_ylt=A0oGkjJ89x9HCe4Aj1FXNyoA?p=jack+black&amp;fr=\" target=\"_blank\">[Jack Black]<\/a>&#8216; will return results such as &#8216;jack with black&#8217; but not &#8216;black jack.&#8217;<\/li>\n<li><u>&#8220;inurl&#8221;<\/u> &#8212; if you want to be sure that a specific term will appear in the site&#8217;s URL, use the &#8220;inurl:[query]&#8221; operator. For example: &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/search.yahoo.com\/search?p=inurl:ipod&amp;y=Search&amp;fr=ytff1-msgff\" target=\"_blank\">inurl:iPod<\/a>.&#8217;<\/li>\n<li><u>Site restriction<\/u> &#8212; to restrict your search to pages within a specific domain, use the &#8220;site:[domain]&#8221; operator, followed by your query. For instance: &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/search.yahoo.com\/search?p=site:apple.com%20ipod&amp;y=Search&amp;fr=ytff1-msgff\" target=\"_blank\">Site:Apple.com iPod<\/a>.&#8217;<\/li>\n<li><u>&#8220;orginurlextension&#8221;<\/u> &#8212; to search on specific file types, add &#8216;originurlextension:[file format]&#8217; after your search query.  For example: &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/search.yahoo.com\/search;_ylt=A0oGkifKjx5HcKsAGoRXNyoA?p=nanotechnology+originurlextension:swf&amp;fr=yfp-t-501-s\" target=\"_blank\">nanotechnology originurlextension:swf<\/a>&#8216; OR &#8216;<a href=\"http:\/\/search.yahoo.com\/search;_ylt=A0oGkkYokB5H8LQAllRXNyoA?p=nanotechnology+originurlextension:pdf&amp;fr=yfp-t-501-s\" target=\"_blank\">nanotechnology originurlextension:pdf<\/a>.&#8217;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>For the full post, have a look at the <a href=\"http:\/\/http:\/\/www.ysearchblog.com\/archives\/000498.html\" target=\"_blank\">Yahoo!
