Joe - as a fellow InfoSelect user, don't you just wish that there could be an online version of InfoSelect that we could all just copy and paste random notes into, much as I, and obviously you, do now on standalone PCs?  I tried to paste that thread into the Wiki page via the Edit function, but it got formatted very oddly - all the linewraps were different, and the different text features like Bold, Italics, and Underlining didn't survive the copy-and-paste.

The search function in InfoSelect is awesomely fast (instantaneous really) and the search gives letter-by-letter feedback as to how many results you're hitting.

A collection of searchable, random scraps of info, ranging from single-line posts, to full-on code segments, and threads from forums, - they're all in my InfoSelect.  Ideally, that's what would be most useful online if such a thing were possible.  I really don't know anything about coding (either in HTML or even AFL ;)) but I'm a very keen AmiBroker user.  Much of what I've learnt has been from the kind folks in this forum, along with Tomasz's code in the Trader's Tips section of the Ami Member Zone.

Anyone know of an InfoSelect-like way of achieving online what InfoSelect currently does on a standalone PC?

Regards,  NightStalker.
