find dir <expr1> -o <expr2> does not work

[cristi petrisor]

I am trying to make a tar with files that are in a directory and checks
some condition
The problem i encountered is next :
find common  -type f   give the following output. (which is good)

common/VERSION
common/gui/svcConsole/src/com/ibm/storage/svc/console/rcmap/RcMapCreateOptionsStep.java

find common -type f -o -type l
(get nothing here )

find common -type f -o
common
common/gui
common/gui/svcConsole
common/gui/svcConsole/src
common/gui/svcConsole/src/com
common/gui/svcConsole/src/com/ibm
common/gui/svcConsole/src/com/ibm/storage
common/gui/svcConsole/src/com/ibm/storage/svc
common/gui/svcConsole/src/com/ibm/storage/svc/console
common/gui/svcConsole/src/com/ibm/storage/svc/console/rcmap

find common -type f -o -type f
(nothing)
It seems that  "find common -type f -o -<exprs>
returns nothing.
I'm using winXP. On linux same comand works fine...
Thanks for your time.
