    Does SitePoint's Advanced Search not support double quotes?

    Searching for the CSS Quiz--which always has the same prefix in the title-- search produces an error using " " double quotes. Are they unsupported?
    C

    ---------------------
    1. Using Advanced Search feature I selected "Search Single Content Type", posts;
    2. Keyword(s): CSS - Test Your CSS Skills; Titles Only;
    3. Limit to CSS Forum
    Using double quotes to only search for Paul O'B's skills test, I get this error:
    The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search:
    "Test Your CSS Skills"

    With single quotes and no quotes both return 94 mixed title results of the 40 CSS Quizes to date. Which is to say the results are both greedy unordered keywords:
    "why the time part can't locate to the right side and the same line with the test one"
    "CSS - Test Your CSS Skills"
    are both returned on the basis of the keyword "test"

    Hm, I find site searches pretty useless on all sites these days, and go for Google instead.

    Here's a link to the quiz archive, anyhow:
