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 original files.
Requirements
dtSearch Web requires IIS 4 or later
(included with Windows NT/2000/XP Pro/2003) to install.
Indexing
Just select "Add folder..."
as shown below, and dtSearch will do the rest. 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 form.
The form
builder provides numerous ways to customise the contents of search results,
the document display, and the search form itself. (You can also use
an HTML editor such as Macromedia's Dreamweaver to edit the resulting
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. Buttons like
"next hit", "previous document", "next document",
etc., 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.
