How
dtSearch Works on the Web
dtSearch
Web uses an index that it builds to search
instantly through Terabytes of text. Just
select the folders that you want to index,
dtSearch automatically recognizes and supports
all popular file formats, and never alters
or moves your original files.
Requirements
dtSearch
Web requires IIS 4 or later. See support
article for details.
Indexing
Select "Add
Folder..." as shown below. Once dtSearch
has built an index, it can automatically
update it using the Windows Task Scheduler
to reflect additions, deletions and modifications
to your document collection.There
is no limit on the number of folders (or
individual files) that dtSearch Web can
index. You can have dtSearch Web index all
of your drives and folders in one index,
or you can create separate indexes for groups
of related documents. Indexes can overlap
-- i.e. the same documents can be placed
in separate indexes.

Web
Setup
With a few
mouse clicks, dtSearch Web Form Builder
lets you designate multiple indexes to search
on your site, and automatically generates
a search page. The
Form Builder lets you customise the contents
of search results, the document display,
and the search form itself. (You can also
use an HTML editor such as Dreamweaver to
edit the search form.)

Searching
The form
builder will automatically install the search
form on your Internet or Intranet Web site,
so visitors can instantly carry out a search.
Search
Options
dtSearch Web
supports the following search options:
- single
word, phrase and boolean (and, or, not)
-
All the words, Any of the Words, Exact
Match. Built-in relevancy-ranking by
"hit" density and rarity (so
that words which appear more rarely
in your documents will receive a higher
relevancy ranking)
- fuzzy
searching, adjustable from 1 to 10,
to sift through typographical or spelling
errors
- stemming,
to automatically find different word
variations (like find, finds, finding)
- phonic
searching, to find words that sound
alike (like Smith and Smythe)
- thesaurus
searching, to find related concepts
and synonyms, using dtSearch Web's built-in
thesaurus and/or user-defined concepts
or synonyms
While dtSearch Web supports all of these
search options, Webmasters can easily
customise published Web pages to include
or exclude any of these options.
Display
After a
search, dtSearch Web will display retrieved
files with hit highlighting, and all links
and images intact. The result looks just
like the original HTML or PDF page, but
with highlighted hits. HTML links remain
fully functional in the document. "next
hit", "previous document",
"next document" buttons let you
quickly navigate through your hits and documents.
For
XML, you can perform indexed searches using
the full range of dtSearch features across
an entire XML database, or limited to a
highly specific combination of fields or
sub-fields.
For
other file types, dtSearch uses built-in
file converters to convert non-Web-ready
formats such as wordprocessor, database,
spreadsheet, ZIP, etc., to HTML for display
with highlighted hits.
