Basically, its a wrapper around the Swish-E spider binary. This spider can work with HTML, XML (using internal parser or libxml2 for both HTMLa and XML), PDF (PERL extension converts to HTML first, so if you want PDF you need PERL too. Note the actual Swish-E is written in C), Doc, Excel and even MP3 (via ID3 tags) again, all via extra PERL extensions. It can work locally, over http and even by processing texts that is the result of another file (script or whatever).

Does the wrapper use some sort of PHP extension or does it communicate directly with the binary? And the API of your package and Search_Mngosearch should be similar.

You didn't read the code did you :P Hell,I'm not convinced you read the whole e-mail. - Davey
