Site search facility

KiwiBrian

What do you recommend for an application I can host on a web site that can
provide a site search facility?
I thought I read that Google had a new aplication for this but I can't find
any reference to it now.

Thanks

Look at Google's advanced search feature (it allows a search to be
contained to a particular domain name), you might also want to look at
their webmastering information.

If you want to run your own search engine, you'll need to be able to
install software at your web host (e.g. "htdig"). Ask your webhost for
advice about that approach.

Did you try clicking "Business Solutions" on the Google home page?

It doesn't really integrate with your site. For that, I use Perlfect.

Search facility on a web site?

Hi, I would like to add a search engine facility onto my website.

For this it would actually need to search the HTML page (ie.

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
