Comments on: Google offers search within search

Imagine searching inside Wikipedia or Amazon.com, but on the Google search site.

Must be restricted to only some servers

I don't see said results here.

works in Firefox, not Safari

It works here on Mac OS X 10.5.2 using Firefox 2.0.0.12 but
NOT using Safari 3.0.4 (5523.15).

Note though that the only thing this "shortcut" does is allow you
to do in 2 steps, what you can already do in 1 step. Google just
uses the results of your secondary search to contruct its
standard "site-specific search string". For example, if you use
the method reported above to search Wikipedia for "uvic law", you can accomplish the same thing in 1 step by just typing in:

uvic law site:wikipedia.org

main-search-term site:name-of-site

As mentioned above, you can accomplish the same thing in only
1 step but just typing in your actual search term followed by
"search-words site:name.of.site.to.search.on".

This is standard behaviour for Google and works on any site. It
also works on all browsers. For example, try:

tim horton's site:haligonian.com

Still, the sub-search box is a neat feature for those who don't
know or don't remember Google's standard site-specific search
syntax.
