Searching
The Periodic Table has two different search methods;
The first method allows you to search through all of the Periodic Table's content.
Typing a single term such as hydrogen and clicking Go! or pressing Enter will bring up a list to the right. Clicking on a plus sign will expand the list. Double-clicking an expanded item will display all the data that contain the word "hydrogen" in the Data Display Window.
Typing in multiple search terms such as hydrogen england will bring up all of the pages that contain the word hydrogen or england. Pages that contain one of the search terms will be designated , pages that contain all of the search terms will be designated .
Ticking the All keywords search checkbox will ensure that a search for multiple terms such as hydrogen england will only bring up pages that contain hydrogen and England.
The second method allows you to search for elements that have specific properties or combinations of properties.
Select a Parameter, select a Test, and finally select the Value for which you wish to check.
Selecting "Melting point", ">=" and “400” will find all those elements that have a melting point greater than or equal to 400K. (see example to the left)
By combining up to 5 sets of test you are able to select elements by a wide range of properties.
The available parameters and the units they are measured in are displayed in tool tips above the "parameter" and "value" entries. Generally the SI unit is used, although this isn't always the case.
