htdig doesn't work because (AFAIK) its index format is a berkeley db which is 7 bit, and therefore can't correctly store DBCS Asian character strings (or UTF encoded text?). Russian should work fine in either htdig or udmsearch -- UdmSearch seems to be located in Russia. (I haven't tried it). The other issue with searching CJK encoded sites is that the search algorithms are word-oriented -- and there are no "spaces" between "words" in CJK languages. UdmSearch: http://search.mnogo.ru/ On Wed, 26 Jul 2000, Ben Heuer wrote: > Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2000 14:51:16 +0800 > From: Ben Heuer <ben_heuer@artlover.com> > To: Philip Diller <philip@pristine.com.tw> > Subject: Re: [PHP] Search Engine. > > Two questions: > > 1.
