Searching the HOA website

Q: How can I find HOA web pages about slab leaks?

A: Use the PicoSearch service to find web pages that contain specific words. PicoSearch is available from two places on www.vmhoa.net: from the sitemap page and the Newsletter Index page. From either of those pages, enter your search key words (slab AND leak) in the space provided and click the search button. A listing of vmhoa.net web pages that contain your keywords will be displayed with a link to each page.

Q: Why not just type "slab leak" as the search keywords?

A: That would work, but yields more than you wanted. It would return pages that contain either "slab" OR "leak", rather than only pages which contain both "slab" AND "leak".
