Searching/Indexing class

Well I do a lot of coding for a few different sites (some for amusement and some for profit) so making portable code is something I strive for. Well this is my latest installment of just that (I hope). Miester Search v0.1 is a class that allows you to define a number of tables and run a few scripts to create some simple btree indexes of those tables. Here are a few of the features in this release: - Support for multiple tables (index your news, links, articles, etc.) - Uses simple relevancy to order results - Support for boolean AND's (OR's will work, but Google doesn't use them so why should I?) - Currently returns results from 5 different tables with a combined total of about 6000 rows in less than a second. I've scaled similar code to 2M rows - Support for MySQL only, but a DB abstraction layer is included so porting to other DB's should be easy. You can see it in action at http://www.miester.org/search/search.php - a search for Linux will show the speed pretty nicely. You can download it for your own use at http://www.miester.org/software/miester_search_v0.1.tar.gz It's not exactly google in a box, but it works well for small scale sites that want to easily index their content. --Joe --- Joe Stump PHP Programmer www.Care2.com
