#1623: API Search doesn't return good results
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  charding            |       Type:  defect
   Status:  new                 |   Priority:  minor 
Component:  webpage             |    Version:        
 Keywords:  api search doxygen  |    Pending:  0     
--------------------------------+-------------------------------------------
 Steps:
 1) Click the API link on the webpage
 2) In the 'Search for' field, type 'accel'

 Alternatively,
 1) Click the Search Link on the webpage
 2) Have only API ticked
 3) Type 'accel' in the search box and hit SEARCH

 Expected: You would get results that contain the string 'accel' either
 alone or within a function string or data structure or as a parameter
 somewhere in doxygen docs.

 Reality: No results at all.

 Unless I search for an exact string as a function call or data structure,
 I will get an exact match.

 On the previous gaim.sf.net doxygen search page, it would display results
 that had any functions, data structures, or function parameters that would
 have the search string by itself or within any of these objects.

 Perhaps to alleviate this, a sub string search could be turned on or
 implemented in the search.
