Hi,

I am just looking at HTDig for the first time and would like to implement it on our 
website.
How hard would it be to get HTDig to also trawl thru databases as well?
ie
http://www.uq.edu.au/search/

We create summary tables nightly of our major databases.
For example departments is a very complex database and every night we populate an 
empty table called dn-departments.

This table contains fields like

        facilityID int NOT NULL ,
        facilityName varchar (255) NULL ,
        facilityDescription text NULL ,
        mapCoord varchar (11) NULL ,
        buildingNumber varchar (10) NULL ,
        campusName varchar (50) NULL ,
        summary text NULL ,
        allFields text NULL ,
        sourceURL varchar (255) NULL ,
        catalogRank int NULL ,
        departments text NULL 


Then our M$ SiteServer search engine (I despise the fact that we had to use this 
product) will trawl thru the webpages and also the summary tables in the database.
When a search is made by a user on the web it is done on all this info.

If someone knows what I'm talking about. 
Would it be easy to do on HTDig?
How much would it cost us to get a developer to add this feature to the 
product?(Keeping the GNU of course)
