Searching Your Way Around the Net

Over on Codewalkers.com this morning, they have a new tutorial for all of those coders out there that have been looking for a way to index their pages and use a "keyword search" to find the results.

Creating a Search Application will step you through creating a search application for your web site. It guides you through database principles, creating a simple keyword harvester, and then finally the search application itself. The database class and the harvest class are pretty complete, and should work for most applications out there.

It's nice that he includes these scripts as classes and not just random scripts to be run. They are much easier to put into existing code this way, and allow a bit more flexibility with how the application works, rather than forcing you to modify your application to make it work with this.
