All search results of Zomato but without the keyword swiggy in it & also what if I want to exclude one more keyword along with swiggy?

Olx’s search engine doesn’t have any options or shortcuts to do that.

Exactly. So how can we achieve it? Is it possible to add something In URL which leads us to our desired results?

I quickly wrote a script which might fulfill your need somewhat

 ![image](https://onehack.st/uploads/default/original/3X/9/8/98edb5eac551e7792bf2331d2538f97e4bfd4f9d.jpeg)

```auto
const ulElement = document.getElementsByClassName('rl3f9 _3mXOU')[0];
liElements = ulElement.querySelectorAll('li');
liElements.forEach((item) => {
    const itemTitle = item.querySelector('._2tW1I');
    if(itemTitle) {
        const titleText = itemTitle.textContent.toLowerCase();
        const includeWords = ['apple'];
        const excludeWords = ['philips'];
        let result = excludeWords.some(word => titleText.includes(word))
        if(result) { return }
        result = includeWords.some(word => titleText.includes(word))
        if(result) { console.log(itemTitle.textContent); }
    }
})

```

Update adding this will also remove the node you don’t want

```auto
let result = excludeWords.some(word => titleText.includes(word))
if(result) {
    item.remove()
    return 
}

```

I have not test if the script works properly so if some error come pm me.

If you are using chrome, execute that script and save that page as a link in a txt file or just close it and then reopen that page from chrome on your mobile. Or better yet send that page to your mobile by clicking →

and then scan it on your phone.
