searching help

Hi

Im looking for some help.

I have a website which contains many documents and i want to allow my user to search for a particular document, the current search i have on the screen when i search displays htm pages too, when really i just want documents to be displayed in the results

is there a way of doing this ?

Thanks

Corinne

What are you using for this? ASP PHP...?

If we knew that we'd know better how to deal with the problem.

URL?

We are redesigning the site from scratch so the world is our oyster really, we do have php installed on the server if that helps

The current site is

www.teesvalley-jsu.gov.uk

but thats gonna be scrapped soon so we can start all over again

thanks

Not the expert on this but, wouldn't it achieve the result you're after if you put the .htm files in a separate folder that isn't included in the address you've targetted with the Google search code?

It could work...

Well If you're starting from scratch there's some suggestions you should stick to to make sure your site is a success.

• Keep it simple. Use semantic mark-up and solid CSS.
• Choose a technology and stick with it. If you've got PHP running then use PHP. It'll do the job nicely.
• Do some reading on web standards for the type of site you're making.
• Don't let your site fall into the infernal pit of "Design over content"

Thank you

We are wanting to get rid of the google part of it and have our own search , is this easy to set up ?
