Hi all,

I have a simple question regarding Intranet searches.

I have several hundred word documents that I want to put on a company intranet under one heading (CI Reports).

I need to be able to add these documents to the intranet and search just the section of the intranet that contains these documents (there will be a separate section on the intranet for these documents for people to go and search them), I will need to search the title and the body. Does anyone know of the best method of achieving this?

Should I use a database to store the information then search the database, whilst displaying the results on the web browser?

If I will have to use a database can I use MS Access 2003.

Many thanks


 
Wrong forum for the question really. This is for optimising for internet search engines not designing your own.

The forum for whatever server side code you use would be a good starting place.

So long, and thanks for all the fish.
 
Cillies,

At risk of perpetuating a thread in the wrong forum, the easiest way of adding search capabilities to a site is to use a service such as I use this on my own site, and am very happy with it.

The service is free if you don't mind ads on the result page, otherwise it costs just a nominal annual subscription.

Mike
