Search Feature
« on: September 28, 2002, 13:25:36 »
I'm having album.pl mania right now. Sorry for all these posts!

Other than creating a static html page for each album, and incorporating a cgi search app, have you thought about somehow running an index script  that indexes pics and descriptions, where you could eventually add your own search feature? UBB does this. Is this something you've thought about implementing some time in the future?

So far, search has simply been added to the to do list, without much thought about how to implement it. :(

Indexing certainly makes sense, as searching large albums would otherwise be time consuming. But indexing also has some side effects... I'm new to that whole area, so I'll see what I can learn...

Cheers
