Oops! Misread the original post.
Actual details vary among search engines, but in Google, if you want
to find something specific on a given web site, add "site:[root url]"
at the end of the list of keywords. No quotation marks or square
brackets, and replace "root url" with the actual home page address.
So, for example, you might type the following in Google's search field:
