Many thanks to the people who got me past my problems building on Solaris; while I can't install software system-wide, the CCS packages are already installed, and knowing to look in /usr/ccs/bin was key to my getting going.
Just so you won't think you're doing *all* my work for me, I got PDF indexing working on my own, and the rest of the indexing is working fine, and the I've got result pages and error pages coming out matching the rest of the site in appearance. (This is not my first site using htdig, just the first one hosted on Solaris. It's my first try at PDF indexing, though.) Except they're asking if there's a way to not index the HTML code in documents, just the text between tags. The particular issue, I believe, is a list of keywords in a SELECT which appears as part of the navigation on every page, and hence makes every page a hit for those keywords. I suspect there's no answer to this in current versions; if there is I haven't sniffed a trace of it in the FAQ or documentation. But, is there? As a possible long-term suggestion, what about some kind of meta tag that would tell htdig not to index things between them? This would give people a lot of control on how site-specific local searches worked. -- David Dyer-Bennet, <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/> RKBA: <http://noguns-nomoney.com/> <http://www.dd-b.net/carry/> Pics: <http://dd-b.lighthunters.net/> <http://www.dd-b.net/dd-b/SnapshotAlbum/> Dragaera/Steven Brust: <http://dragaera.info/> Much of which is still down ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ ht://Dig general mailing list: <[email protected]> ht://Dig FAQ: http://htdig.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html List information (subscribe/unsubscribe, etc.) https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/htdig-general
