I suggest you this patch again, as Geoff told me some days ago.
With this patch when I set "use_meta_description" to true, htsearch shows
the description (if found). Else, it uses the top of the document if
"excerpt_show_top" is on. Else (again), i tries to search the 1st
occurrence of the word inside the document and acts as default.
Give it a look. I'm sure it works fine (cos that's what is currently
running on my site) ...
Ciao to all my dear diggers
Gabriele
