As long as you can view Cyrillic in your Web browser,
you can use these sites. Each search tool linked below should
open in a new window while keeping this page available to you. These
tools accept English as well as Russian, although a Russian query gives
better results. If you cannot type in Cyrillic in your browser,
but it is Java Script capable, the Russian
Cyrillic Helpers site has two neat pages to help "type" a Russian query.
Just set your browser for KOI-8 fonts. One page gives you a Russian
typewriter
layout, while the other gives you the letters in alphabetic
order. Key in the query you will make in the search tool,
one letter at a time. Then, highlight the word or words, copy, and
paste into the search box of the Russian search tool. Hit the
"search" button and you are on your way. Again, both of these
links open in a new window as well, while keeping this page available
to you.
Browsers cost nothing. If you cannot view
Cyrillic with only a few clicks of the mouse in your old browser, you should
download and install a new one. Try in particular Firefox
or Microsoft
Internet Explorer. Others to try include, but are not limited
to, Netscape and
Opera.
For information about typing in Cyrillic or viewing Cyrillic in older browsers,
please
see the "Russification" page.
