The SEARCH object

Post by alex4orly »

Not clear on how to use this object?
I assume it is intended to give visitors a way to find a page / pages for a certain topic / keywords...

But how?

OK, I implemented this function and have 2 questions:

1) It seems the search script only searches in my HTML pages, but I have documents in PDF format embeded into an iFrame, it seems those are ignored in the search. Is there a way to include them?

2) If you try searching for a word, say "members" , and I click on the result, it brings up the page itself, but the page is embeded in an iFrame which doesn't show...
Please visit this : http://www.beleuramyhome.org.au/updir/home.html
Enter in the search field CLA which is a word on the front page, then click the result

What can I do about it?

1. The script cannot search in PDFs. There is no way to include external content.
2. You can set the target of the link in the property inspector. Did you try _'self'?

OK, Found it and the result is OK, But

Please visit http://www.beleuramyhome.org.au/updir/home.html#
On the front page, you can see the word NDIS, try entering it into the search box, click - it does not find it...

Why?

Maybe the search index is configured to use text objects only?
