The "search.html" installed by Verio contains this:

If you haven't already, you want to change this to:

Format: <select name="format">
<option value="long">Long
<option value="short">Short
</select>

Then htdig will look for the "long.html" and "short.html" file in your
"common" directory, as defined in the configuration file.

Thanks, Alan. I already tried this. It did not work for me. Once again, when I uncomment the appropriate lines in the configuration file, I get the correct number of pages found in the header followed by a blank results body. When I comment the lines, I get results in the body, but in the default format/style. I'm sure I'm missing something simple but can't for the life of me figure out what.


Now, Perry, since you and I are users of htdig via Verio, I'm irritated by
the extremely uninformative way of initiating the indexing process, with
that one button on the "Web site add-on" Web page buried in the
administrators part of the site. In fact, if I invoke indexing and leave
this page up, I end up getting an error message back after a few minutes and
somehow aborting the indexing process--but nothing more than a single error
message, no logs, etc. Have you figured out any more effective way of
controlling/monitoring the indexing process?

No, I haven't--although I don't get error messages. Thanks for explaining about Verio making some files hidden and inaccessible--that explains why I couldn't make any sense of some of the posts I found in the archives.


I am coming to the conclusion that htdig is too technical for the likes of me and I should probably stick with what I have (PicoSearch). I'll give it some more effort if anyone has any further suggestions about my problems. Am I the only one that has a problem with not being able to access more than 10 pages of results from the footer?

Again, I'm new to the list so please let me know if I am not following proper etiquette.

Best;
Perry
