I am looking for a way to add a web-wide Search Process to my Community Web
site.
I design and maintain a Community website for Worthington, Minnesota that is
hosted on spunkyworld.com servers ( wgtn.net)
Presently I have been using the FREE services of atomz to provide a Search
Process for JUST the Business Directory ( roughly200 to 250 documents). But,
this FREE option has limitations on page count that do not allow it to be
implemented on the whole web site ( over 500 documents)without substantial
monthly charges.
I am not a techy person and rely upon simple processes that are easy to
implement and troubleshoot.
Tho I do use FrontPage for design and authoring, and tho it does have a
Search Process, it is not clear to me that it will be able to include
subwebs and ignore those subwebs that are not to be indexed as part of
wgtn.net. My questions to the Frontpage newsgroup on this issue have not
brought forth any useful insights.
There are folders/directories that I DO want indexed and some I DONT want
indexed because they are not a public part of wgtn.net ( they are material
for an firm, or an alumni group separate from wgtn.net)
Therefore, if I want to expand the Search process on wgtn.net from JUST the
Business directory to include the rest of the Community website and yet
EXCLUDE certain folders/directories . . I need to look beyond Atomz and
beyond FrontPage facilities.
One possible option that I found is a CGI script provided by Boutell:
http://www.boutell.com/search/. But, even there, I am not sure it will
discriminate between folders that should be indexed and those that shouldnt
be indexed.
What do you suggest for a web site search process?
