== Navigating under Grottocenter ==
=== RapidQuick search ===
Are you looking for a cavitycave, a caving club, a document, information on a karstic massif?
At the top left of your page (near a magnifying glass icon) an entry box entitled "Quick search" awaits you.
* A drop-down list is then displayed with all the answers obtained, choose the one that suits you by clicking on it.
* If your keyword is too short you will see the message "No result (enter at least three characters)". In order to circumvent the difficulty, add one or more blank spaces to it and you will then obtain a result. For example if you are looking for the "Bone Cave", type "bone + space"
* For compound names you will often need to be a little more specific. For example, if you are looking for the "GrotteDonkey duwood Bois de l'ânecave" you will have to enter "bois dedonkey l'ânewood".
What if your search is more complex or more precise or if the quick search does not give you satisfaction?
