SearchToHTML

The SearchToHTML applet provides your visitors with a simple way to search your Web site. Search results are displayed in HTML. Using HTML provides your visitors with a familiar interface and provides you with greater control over the display of the search results. Other features of the applet include picking out the closest anchor to a match and displaying the context surrounding a match.

This update uses HTML both for the search form and for the display of results, increasing the flexibility of the interface. It also adds support for multibyte encodings and for returning multiple matches per page.

It was compiled under JDK 1.4 but should run under 1.1. It was compiled against the JDK 1.1 classes targeting the 1.1 VM.

Author's Notes:
This release adds the option of having the applet display a checkbox for users to choose whether the applet does AND or OR searches. It fixes a bug related to doing AND searches and adds a couple of variables to searchresults.html to allow for more control of the display of the search results. And the documentation has been cleaned up somewhat.
