Hi all, I have made a class that wraps calls to the php mnogosearch extension. Mnogosearch is a search engine that can be used with many different DB. For more info, look at : http://www.mnogosearch.ru At the moment, mnogosearch only has a php frontend. This solution is not flexible enough because it mixes display and data management. The code is a bit old and doesn't handle the new $_SERVER, $_GET, $_POST globals efficiently. So, there is a need for such a class. Some explanations if you are using Mnogosearch ---------------------------------------------- This class will be useful for you if you need a higher level of customization in your webpage design. In fact, all it deals with are raw data: results, errors, page numbers. It doesn't handle layout and display at all, this is left to the designers. So, it is particularly useful if you work with a template system like Smarty or HTML_Template_IT or any other one that have placeholders and block features. Note that the code is still BETA and will be tested by the Mnogosearch team. Just let me know if you need more info. Where is the code ----------------- Look at http://www.mamasam.com/mnogo/index.html I don't think many people here use Mnogosearch but this could be a good opportunity. Mnogosearch, coupled with MySQL, is a great search engine. I am thinking about putting it in SearchEngine/Mnogosearch.php This category doesn't exist yet. Any votes ? Bertrand Mansion Mamasam
