A good indexer would add weight to words that appear in headers/footers which also appear in title, meta keyword/description, headings, and expository content (paragraphs, list items, data terms and definitions). Conversely, reduce weight for words appearing in headers/footers (or any part of the document) that doesn't appear in outline/structural elements. What I really hate is all words presented to me without any weighting of relevance to the topic of the page (determined from its structual elements).

We're pretty set on using htdig://, since we already use it for a small subsection of our site. We discussed using Google site:, but (as I mentioned in another e-mail), Google's algorithm isn't very good for searching a specific site.
What I had planned on doing with Apache::QuickCMS is specify in our site coding standards that the template must provide certain variables for the content. Specifically, title, meta-description, meta-keyword, and content. Each would go in the obvious place in the HTML document. This is specifically to help the search indexer do the Right Thing.
