website content search
      #119379 - Tue Oct 19 2004 11:12 AM

Is it possible to search a website for all email addresses contained in it and its related pages? For example, can I search www.xyz.com for all email addresses in the form @xyz.com? I tried using google's website seach feature by entering '@xyz.com site:www.xyz.com', but this feature doesn't seem to include the @ in the search and the results end up covering all pages (because they all contain xyz.com). Thanks.

We've known you for some time now, k_khalil76, so I think we can safely say you're not a spammer (though I could be wrong).

You could try going to the site that interests you and searching each page for the "@" symbol.

At the top of your browser, click on "Edit", then "Find (on This Page)".

Alternatively, you can "force" Google to include the symbol by enclosing it in quotes, like this

"@xyz.com"

I don't know whether that will solve your problem though. I use Google quite a bit, but I'm not always very successful with the advanced search features.

I hope everybody isn't going to be bombarded with spam now, either from you or from somebody reading this. Better not stray too far from the cupboard for a week or two.



Btw, if the moderators think there could be a risk, feel free to delete this post.

Hi Barney, thanks for the info, and don't worry, this is not for spam purposes. The problem with the edit/find feature is that it only searched the page you're currently on, and not all related pages of the website (i.e. www.xyz.com/abc etc.). That's what the google feature is supposed to be for, but even when I force it to accpet the @ by using ", it doesn't seem to want to, gives me all the results again.
