“Try It Yourself ” Demo Pages

If you want to try using SetSee—to play with it and see how it works on different types of web pages—follow the links below.  You don’t have to install anything to use SetSee on these pages, as the pages have been enabled with the SetSee capability using the cloud-based commercial product, the Publisher Edition; they should work in any browser (and can even be used, with a little awkwardness because of the small screen size, on a smartphone). The filtering behavior and “user experience” (UX) are the same as in the personal product (the Personal Edition).  

 Each page will load, and a moment later the SetSee panel will pop up in the lower right corner of the browser window, overlaying the page slightly; this is where you enter your search terms:

Note that some of the demo pages open and immediately load SetSee and do an initial search that will shrink the page down to a fraction of its original size, sometimes to show you a useful way of searching that kind of page (we’ll note that in a comment next to the item in the list below).   Just press ESC to clear the search field.

When using SetSee for the first time, it is useful to type a little more slowly than you normally do, so you see how the filtering happens continuously as you add (or remove) each character in your query.  Also, try using the BACKSPACE key, the ESC key, or adding junk letters like zx to any word in your search query (the page will shrink to nothing, as you will have no matches).   Hover your mouse over the Help link in the SetSee panel to understand the search rules that give you the power of Boolean operations (e.g., how to find either word1 or word2 by just using a comma):        

Note that some of these demo pages are slightly modified copies of pages taken from other sites, done so that we can use them for demonstration purposes (the content is free of copyright)—but the original sites could use the Publisher Edition product and provide the same capability on the real pages.

You can just start typing to see how it works, or type ESC to clear the current search.  Don’t worry about what you type, as all filtering is temporary and you won’t break anything.  If the SetSee panel disappears, just reload the page.

1. The U.S. Constitution and Amendments 
2. NJ Statutes, Section 19
   This is a list of the titles of the nearly 1,000 sections of Title 19 of the NJ State Statutes (the statute for election laws).  Who knew that election law could be so complicated?  These are just the section titles, not the legal wording of the section themselves.
   This page opens with an initial search of   death  to find Title 19 sections with that word in the name.
3. The Purloined Letter, the short story by Edgar Allan Poe.
4. a list of conference speakers
   This is a copy of a listing of AMIA Conference speakers from 2018.
5. USPTO List of Patent Classes
   This is a list of the almost 500 classes into which US Patents are classified.
   This page opens with an initial search of  info,data  to find classes that contain either of those strings.
6. a court decision, United States v. Heller, 866 F.2d 1336 (1989)
   This is a copy of a decision hosted with 1000’s of other cases at CaseLaw.org, reproduced with permission.
7. The Book of Genesis
   This page is a table of the 513 verses in the 20 chapters of [some particular version of] this Bible story.    
   The page loads with an initial search of  daughter and finds 30 (but the word son appears 65 times).

When experimenting with these demo pages, can you find information more effectively than by scrolling down the page or using the browser find command that you would otherwise use?   We hope so.

web pages you visit personally), you can read the ½-page Introduction document.
