Hi all, I know this may not find anyone; it looks as though dev on ht://Dig stopped around 2004. However, we've been using this great product since the late 90's and still find it very useful.
Just a question: is there a way to get ht://Dig to exclude headings text from excerpts in the search results? We use meta description tags for our high-value pages, which works wonderfully. However, for our other pages, the headings (which are obviously necessary on the pages) tend to muck up the excerpts. For an example, see the example result: ITCS: How do I use one of the e-mail packages supported at U-M (mail.umich.edu, Pine, Mulberry, Eudora)? at <http://www.itcs.umich.edu/cgi-bin/htsearch?words=e-mail;page=2> Were the <h2> tag content not repeated in the excerpt, there'd be a lot more room for the answer to be shown there. Google search results exclude heading tag contents from results excerpts; I didn't see a way in the ht://Dig attributes to do the same thing, but I'm hoping there's some solution. Thanks for any advice you can offer!
