Thank you, Tamouse. I'll research the leads you've given me and do a little experimentation.

I can't think of anyway to do this in a way that directly serves up the document in pmwiki. Off the top of my head, you could create a page for each attached file with whatever tags, comments, and other metadata you might want to have about it, linkng to the attachment, or perhaps add an iframe (that would require additional markup, i think) on the per-document wiki page. It's not elegant, by any means. This, however, doesn't really get at your first wish, which is searching the content of the documents themselves and retrieval based on that. That would require a different search function, possibly using google site: search. Beyond that, I'm not sure what you would need to do to integrate that into pmwiki. Maybe look at http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/GoogleSearch or http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/GoogleCSE ? _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
