Glad you like it. Thanks! > Can you describe the site design and contents formatting in more detail > please Take a look at this script in the Library http://www.rebol.org/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/rebol/view-script.r?script=cookie-example .r It uses many routines lifted direct from the REBOL.org CGIs, and demonstrates some of techniques we use -- techniques that could be common to almost any website built in REBOL: -- HTML templates with place-holders for variable substitution (RSP does it better; if I was starting the site over again, I'd be tempted to use RSP) -- Making an object out of the CGI input fields -- "Defusing" CGI input fields to prevent XSS attacks, or just weird output formatting -- Validating CGI input fields -- Setting a cookie for session control -- Using the cookie to retrieve user data --Wrapping all the code in an error? try so you get an apology message rather than a server error if the code goes off-rail. > Please can you point me to the actual search script which is running on the > site? > What do the actual entries look like? The indexing and searching code isn't mine, so I'll have to pass on the request to publish it -- it's Carl's code with a lot of changes by Gregg. But I can give you a peek at the files it uses. The indexing builds two files. The first is mainly the scripts' header information and looks like this: === [file %3kbnewsreader.r size 4605 title "3KB News Reader" author "Ryan C. Christiansen" date 30-Aug-2003 version 0.1.1 purpose "Simple CLI news reader." library [level 'intermediate platform none type 'Tool domain 'other-net tested-under none support none license none]] [file %accumulate.r size 1098 title "Accumulate" author "Andrew Martin" date 30-Aug-2003 version 1.0.1 purpose {Cumulates values in a block together, by successively applying the function to each value in Series.} library [level 'intermediate platform none type 'function domain 'math tested-under none support none license none]] [file %add-link.r size 2295 title "Link Maintainer" author "Anonymous" date 30-Aug-2003 version 1.0.0 purpose "Cgi for maintaining links to REBOL materials" library [level 'advanced platform none type 'Tool domain 'cgi tested-under none support none license none]] etc ==== And the second is an index of all words found, and looks like this: ===== exponent 312 exponential 125 export 15 72 122 182 183 262 expose 359 361 362 363 expose-list 362 Exposed 359 362 ===== Where the numbers are indexes to script names. So six scripts contain the word "export". This scheme works well with around 500 scripts of total size nearly 2MB. Gregg is working on some improvements so we keep ahead of the curve as the dataset grows.
