Hi there,
One of our clients has found an interesting caveat while using htDig,
the answer to which I haven't yet found on the mailing lists, so I'm
hoping someone out there may be able to help.

Basically, after searching for a particular keyword, the results summary
says that there have been "x results found in the whole site" with the
results made up of "x web pages" and "x other files".
The problem however, is that for this particular search, all the files
returned are htm files. Just wondering why htDig would be reporting back
this way and is there any way to have the results tally up correctly
with the files found.


Hope someone can shed some light on this.

Kind Regards

What are you expecting htsearch to return? The htdig software is expected to search
(the html pages on a) web site and build a database that htsearch can scan for text
provided by the user.


If htsearh is returning names (and contents) of html pages, it sounds like it's doing
the job it's supposed to do.




I believe the original poster wants to know why some files are identified as 'other' when they should be identified as 'web pages'. I have no idea what the answer is though, unless it's differentiating between '.html' and '.htm' extensions?
