Stephen,

I will have to disagree with you here (and with Dave if he said the same
thing which I don't see in his messages.)   FuseBox is not just for
presenting dynamic data from a database.   FuseBox can be used just as well
(and I believe is being used this way) to generate static sites that then
make use of nested layouts etc.   There were a couple of posts on this very
topic a couple of days ago.

I would almost guarantee that the major sites (fusebox.org, halhelms.com,
secretagents.com, techspedition.com) all have some purely static display
files that are not tied into a query at all.   I have taken several classes
from Hal and he has never stated that a display file could only be used to
display query data from a database and could have no static content.


So this is leading me to believe that nobody has ever indexed any static
content (static display fuses) within a Fusebox site?  This seems very hard
to believe.

Dave Watt's answer is exactly the same as Perry's response.

Also, as Dave quite rightly says, using verity to index a fusebox site is no
different to using verity on a CF site built using any other method or lack
of method.

The templates that you hold in display folders in a FB2,XFB or FB3 site
SHOULD NOT contain any content.  The are _templates_ for the content which
you have in a database.  It is the database content that you need to index
using verity.  If you know how your application works, then you will be able
search the verity collection and return the appropriate information to be
able to display the template with the content included.

If you have static content in your website, then should be maintaining that
content in a separate folder in your web structure, possibly even separated
totally from all accessible areas of the application/web site.  In this
instance, you should know how your application accesses that static
information and be able to index the files using verity and provide the
appropriate fuseactions and parameters to display the static content
correctly from the search results.

I've attached Dave Watt's emails from the CF-Talk mailing list.  They
contain good information on indexing files and data.

Regards

Stephen
