Draft Note: String Searching

The Internationalization Working Group has published a first Draft Note of String Searching. This document describes string searching operations on the Web in order to allow greater interoperability. String searching refers to natural language string matching such as the "find" command in a Web browser. This document builds upon the concepts found in Character Model for the World Wide Web 1.0: Fundamentals and Character Model for the World Wide Web 1.0: String Matching to provide authors of specifications, software developers, and content developers the information they need to describe and implement search features suitable for global audiences.
