    11 <p>Advanced search will allow you to query the entire database of stories and
    12 comments to find what your looking for. When conducting a query, at least one
    13 field must be selected. The query fields are:</p>

    15 <table border="1" width="100%">
    16 <tr>

    26         "Free" or "Fun" (without the quotes).<br>
