Hello all,
I have been using aspseek for about a week now (http://3sportsearch.org
approx 100,000 docs indexed) and so far I am very happy with it.
I would really love to see a few template variables added:
in res and res2:
It would be nice to have the base url of the search result. For example,
if the search result is: www.active.com/triathlon/, I would like to
have a variable that had www.active.com
in the bottom section (and probably others sections as well):
It would be nice to have the escaped search query. For example, if the
query was 'interwoven teamsite' an escaped query would have
'interwoven%20teamsite'. This would make it a lot easier to include a
"try your search on X search". Right now, if it is a multiword query,
their will be a space in the call to the other search engine and it will
not work.
does not work:
http://www.google.com/search?q=interwoven teamsite
but this would work with an escaped query:
http://www.google.com/search?q=interwoven%20teamsite
I don't think that these are current features, but if they are, please
point me to a RTFM.
While I am on the topic of feature requests, I also have another one for
the indexer. It would be nice to limit what will get indexed by string
instead of just regex. (This is one of the features of htdig that I
loved.) For example, if in the index.conf file, if I enter:
Server http://active.com/triathlon
it would only index pages that had that url string. So it would index
http://active.com/triathlon/results.html but it would not index
http://active.com/duathlon/results.html
That is about it for now. Thank you for your time and your great product.
