Question

How can I make SEARCH search only within a context (NOT the whole page) using phrases and semicolon separation? (see AnnotatedBibliography for an example of the problem) Is this even possible?

Kenneth, I am not sure how you define a context within a topic, but I had once a need to extract text BetweenTwoWords and FormattedSearch tool was very useful. It might help you.

I think you might refer to the problem I had: I needed to search a term from the section of text beginning with some particular string. Take a look at SearchBookTitles.

You can use regexp to search.

Regexps don't fix the problem, which is semicolon separation. Please actually use AnnotatedBibliography to see what I'm talking about (example at the bottom of the page).
