sam i already use it but for unknown reasons it does not show any good results when i tried it. For example i tag one of my anime Roots. But when i use the advance search and use the word root. The anime tagged with root does not appear.

It doesn't search tags. It searches within titles and post content.

BTW if you want to display results in google-like style you have to read the Readme.html in plugin folder

i havent noticed that before.. can you add it later sometime ?*-edit: it does search the tags
and, i dont know if i ve mentioned this before, but it would be cool, if you also could have implemented ¥åßßå's search hi-lite hack

Advanced search plugin is powered by default search functions, so I don't really know if it searches tags or not.
I'll check it out.

You said that a while ago. So what do i have to do with that line?

It was a tip for tilqicom.
I checked your site search and it's working well, I don't see any problems with it.
