Default Re: free internal site search code ?

Hi All,

I wrote my own internal site search for the website i work on, derived from the project i worked on for my Msc. I used a ranking based on natural language and stem formation of words. (For example if someone writes reporting, reported or report these would all be converted to their stem form which is 'report'). I could then compare words easily when i then set a reference within a database table to each page on my site including reference to the key-phrases on each page.

This method allows me to rank pages based on what and how i wanted them to rank and appear - and of course cause i built it it's free - woo-hoo! The only bummer is i havent written anything to automattically index new pages so i have to update the external page search params via mssql. If anyone wants to know anymore/access the source drop me a line.

cheers

mamola
