A steep learning curve with htdig, coming with minimal Unix experieince. However, one problem I have on which any advice would be valued.
I am indexeing a number of PowerPoint documents, which have been convereted to html. Their structure is that for each ppt doc, a subdirectory is created, in which all relevant pages and associated files are dumped. A small htm script file exists in the root directory, pointing to the first page of the ppt converted htm in the relevant subdirectory. So far so good - rundig does its stuff, reads all the htm pages on the top directory and all subsiduary directories, and creates all the db files (and signs off with a segmentation fault just to unsettle one), but the search facility does actually work with one bizarre twist. The correct page (perhaps page 'n' of the ppt file, not page 1) does return in the search result list. But clicking on it sees that page flash momentarily onto the browser window, to be immediately replaced with the first page of the ppt / htm file. I cannot get the correct page to display, even though the URL address in the search page is correct. Any ideas? thanks, peter edinburgh ********************************************************************* This e-mail message, and any files transmitted with it, are confidential and intended solely for the use of the addressee.
