What I'm doing is something like
// cut here
$cmd =
sprintf("/cgi-bin/htsearch?words=%s&method=%s&format=%s&sort=%s",
$words, $method, $format, $sort);
if($page != "") {
$cmd = sprintf("%s&page=%s&START=1", $cmd, $page);
}
virtual($cmd); // get search results
// cut here
This enables me to use the layout our customer needs for his page and
also
gives me the ability to create a more detailed search form. It's
something
like a wrapper for htsearch. Doing it this way you needn't change your
Apache setup.
I haven't tried to filter htsearchs result page with php. It is not
possible
to do that using virtual() with php v3, but maybe you can find something
usefull at http://www.php.net
Hope that helps you in some way?!?
