texte = Thanks Ken, However using ww will prevent a partial word match from showing (only joes and not joeys) but it still shows all instances of joeI tried the following: [search db=nametest.db&wonamedatarq=[namelist]&nameword=ww&namewbrk=,]which uses the wholeword modifier and specifies what the word delimiter is (,) so the effect should be that the term Joe Smith is treated in the search as a whole word. This *should* work (I think) but it doesn't. Only the first matching record is displayed. (wrapping the delimiter in a [url] wrapper had no affect)Any ideas?
