if the content you want to search can be "spidered" just install a
search engine. I and others on the list have had great success
integrating the swish-e search engine into our Witango apps.

I have a hobby site that I work on in my spare time. It has a forum,
chat room, ya da ya da ya da. In it I have created 3 different search
like engines that list resorts, fishing guides and bait and tackle
shops. (you can check it out if you like, just a few months old, but
growing http://MyFishingPals.com )
Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has used Witango to create a search
engine somewhat like google. I have been trying to figure a way to do
this. The big thing is how to search for certain terms. In other
words, a "contains" search does exactly as expected, but how does one
do partial phrase searches and the like. I am not worried about
stemming (related keywords), just trying to figure out how to do this.
example if searching for "jim" returns "Jim and Bonny's Resort" good
so far... But
searching for jim's returns nothing.
And is there a way to use quotes for exact phrase? More like a search
engine?
Anyway, just wondering if anyone has done this or pondered this at
all. Any suggestions would be great.
Thanks
