Jim, thanks for your response. I don't think there will be any
changing of URLs, so it sounds like we will be ok.

FYI, we have been using ht://Dig on both Windows and Linux
for a couple of years now, with no problems at all. Works great!

Kyle

Shouldn't be a problem. The htdig program doesn't care how a page is
generated, only what the HTML in the response looks like. If your new
system is generating valid HTML, you should be OK. The only exception
that
comes to mind is the use of session ids, or similar techniques, that
cause
the URL for a given page to change from request to request. This
probably
would be a show stopper, but there might be some extra work required on
your part.

What search.html is named doesn't make any difference. It just needs to
provide an valid HTML form to the client.

It is not entirely clear from where you plan to actually run ht://Dig.
If
you are going to try to install the package on a Windows box, be aware
that people tend to have mixed luck with that endeavor.
