Finding Content and Rearranging Your View of the Portal: Introduction

No matter the size of the enterprise, most companies have a vast library of useful documents and applications. It can be a challenge to locate just the document you need, to return to it once you've found where it's stored, and to keep on top of critical changes to it. OracleAS Portal offers an array of search solutions ranging in degree of sophistication and complexity. At the simpler end, a built-in Search Box item provides a rapid means of adding search capability to a page. A page designer simply adds the item, and users can begin searching immediately. On the more sophisticated end, Basic, Advanced, and Custom Search portlets provide an increasing capability for narrowing search criteria and automating content publication.
