addterm operator

How can I use the addterm intention to search for two fields with an OR? So in this case, I want to search or source="ABC" OR server="ABC" into my xml hidden search.

<param name="arg">
<param name="source">*$target$*</param>
<param name="server">$target$</param>
</param>

thanks!

I'm pretty sure that this can not be done with the addterm intention.

You would have to use a stringreplace intention, or switch to using Sideview Utils and thus no intentions at all.
