What would you say: SEARCH ON/IN THE NET?
Thanks for your great help in advance.

Hi Yolanda,
I may be wrong, but I �d say just: �search the net �.

If I were searching �in the net � I would be looking in a fishing net for the tiny fish I just caught.
For the internet I simply would �search the net" or "look on the net"
Just my tuppence worth

what about "search online" then you don �t need a preposition! ; )
Just a note: I find students overuse the word "search" when simply "look for" will do. "Search" for me is looking for something carefully, or at length. Particularly when something is difficult to find.
I guess it comes from the omnipresence of "search engine"
Hugs to you all!
