Hi,

Can anybody tell me of a quality, freeware cgi script to establish a
site search for a 120 page web site?

Thanks to anybody who can help,

Andrew

swish-e, while not freeware (it's open source) is really
good.

Hope I don't sound like too much of a grouch, but freeware isn't
really a good term for Open Source projects. (I'm not picking
on you, honest!) it's just that I hear stuff referred to as freeware
quite often and feel a need to every now and then speak up about it.

Not that my little voice really means a whole lot. :-)

It's a good point and you are correct.

Hi Jamie,

You are of course quite correct :-) I have used the term 'freeware' a
lttle loosely and quite incorrectly.

Love the blurb on the site: 'What a bloody fantastic tool.'!!

All the best,

Andrew
