I'm building a search engine couple with database info... I wanna to detect things like phone-numbers, adress, money values, etc...
This things are easy with regex... but exist things like persons names and places that I not can see how detect... for example, below in the mail is my name, a web adress and a phrase... How can detect my name in the text? I have a database of names, but if the name is writed: Mario Mario A. Montoya Mario Alejandro Montoya Cortés Mario Alejandro Montoya C. I don't can simply do a direct lookup... Any ideas in how this can be build, like is working with smart tags in office? -- Mario Alejandro Montoya MCP MUTIS: The Open source Delphi search engine http://mutis.sourceforge.net/
