Greetings all, I've been playing with putting together some large Plucker files -- a version of the gcide dictionary, and maybe a portable version of the IMDB. I'm writing perl scripts to generate indexes and content pages and was just interested in a little advice on how to break things up for fastest access.
With the dictionary, I'll probably break it up by letter, and maybe smaller chunks (eg AK-AZ) which points to a word list, which then links to emedded links in largish definition pages. Is there a maximum size I should shoot for for the definition pages, or even the word-list pages? I'm trying to minimize the "human search", but it might be faster for the early steps. Ideally I'd like the word with just two selections (ie. select "A" from the list, find "Armadillo" in word list page, tap for definition. I'd like to not have to wait too long for the final machine search. Any advice would be appreciated. Jim Lebans __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
