Hi, I'm hoping to get some advice about how to tackle a specific situation.
I am indexing a network of 5 domains. One of these domains requires a subscription.
When you search on any of the 5 sites you get results for documents on all 5
domains. Tags are used to allow people to only search a single domain if they want.
What I want to do provide html like quot;subscription required-- click here to
learn morequot; in the search results when the page found is on the subscription
site.
My initial solution to this problem was to use the php frontend and create a custom
template variable that would provide me with this functionality. But I am changing
servers (from redhat to freeBSD) and using the default freebsd ports has me
increasing my php version to 4.2.1 and decreasing mnogosearch to 3.1.19-2. The php
frontend doesn't work with this combination so I have been looking to switch to using
search.cgi.
If the problem is only in software versions, you can install
both php and mnogosearch from sources, not from ports.
So far the best solution I have come up with to provide this
functionality on search.cgi is to use javascript to do a check on
$DU for the subscription url and write out the required html when I
get a match. Can anyone think of a better option? I have complete
control over the subscription site and can dynamically produce any
meta tags I want...
You can use external includes in search.htm, please take a look into
documentation.
