View Full Version : Indexing web with layout tables and table borders?

Hi!

I've had some success using your fine search engine for my html pages.

But there are two issues that i still need to resolve.

1.
I did notice that any text I have inside tables with borders was excluded from the indexing results. My site is built using layout tables (FP-2003).

2.
After much fiddling, and browsing your site, I managed to get a search box into my navigation menu. But when using it, I only reach the search template page (results template?), and from there I can execute a search and get great results.
So, in effect, my menu-located box with its button (linked to search.asp) does not execute a search.

?
What should I do?

Most grateful for your services, and now, for any light that might be shed upon this!

Cheers,
Jebueno99

1. This shouldn't be the case. Can you post the URL to your page, or if that is not possible the HTML from a small example page

2. Again, having the URL to your site would be helpful. But have a look section 5.8 of the users guide, "How can I add a search form to my menus, main page, etc.?".

The users guide is here

It suugests using a form like this,


<form method="GET" action="search.asp">
<input type="text" name="zoom_query" size="10">
<input type="submit" value="Search">
</form>
