    HEXUS Launches Predictive Search

    Again, HEXUS has raised the bar in order to deliver to you the easiest way to find your HEXUS content.

    The way it works - simple really

    Goto HEXUS - login to My HEXUS (using your http://trust.HEXUS.net account!) this will enable a few features for you

    1. It will enable Predictive search
    2. It will enable the ability to see printer friendly reviews.

    If your browser is caching style sheets - you will need to do CTRL + F5.

    This is what you get - type in 3 letters or more and it finds content.



    This feature is only avaliable to those who have a My HEXUS account.

    This is free - signup at http://trust.HEXUS.net

    We will be adding more features soon

    Brilliant! No more trawling through the review pages

    The amount of times I have struggled to find something that I KNOW is on the site...

    Once again - good work!

    We had the new search feature since the new site launched

    But - this is something we have activated today.

    The aim is to make it easier to find the content, but you can still do a full search.

    However, if you can't find it with a full search you can do a wildcard search (infact, it does it automatically for you!)

    Agreed. Search is (was) needed.

    Well done with the predictive, nice bit of DXML

    It's a good thing that it's a sign-up feature as well because it'll invite more people to actually sign up and check out more from HEXUS. Good job guys!
