Sure, no problem. I'd never used it so was just sharing it for your
consideration.

Given that you're reaching "the end of your rope", I'll point out that
BlueDragon has built-in spidering, via CFINDEX (and a new Type="WebSite")
option. You could of course control scheduling using CFSCHEDULE (or the
Admin). That would seem to give you all seek, and the spidering feature is
not limited to just searching the localhost. 

As with CF, there is a free trial (30 day) as well as free developer edition
(no expiration, limited to requests from localhost). There is also the free
Server edition, free for non-commercial deployment, then the Server JX
edition ($899). Not trying to "sell" BD. Just pointing out an alternative as
you seem to have reached the end of other possibilities.

Charlie,

I downloaded that program, and although it is feature rich it is lacking a
few keys things that I do require, and as much as I appreciate the pointer
to this, it will not suit our needs here.

* I need the ability to schedule multiple searches, and define when and how
often these schedules run.
* I also need to be able to have an API that will connect into Coldfusion to
have control

As well as the other features I mentioned earlier.


The main problem is that this must be able to search the web, and and any
given urls. And to make it even harder we do not have access to the server
as it is hosted on a shared environment so an API is important as we can not
use cfexecute, although I can get around this but would like to not have to
use that option if I can avoid it.
