It looks like it can be used as a browser applet to search docs on the intranet, as you imagined. This site (http://www.brownsite.net/docsearch.htm) has a little bit about using it as a web interface. Lucene (which DocSearcher uses) has info (http://jakarta.apache.org/lucene/docs/gettingstarted.html) that is relevant, too. When I get some more time, I'll delve further into it, but DocSearcher could be packaged such that it can serve as a browser applet. Matt
