Hi,
last week i got webinator.
I start the search from a content management system called Obtree.
To make a full text search is no problem.
But know i will create a search form for meta tags (for example i will search for author or title). It should be possible to generate extra fields for the meta tags.
Where can I make such a search form and where can i make a script for the query?
Thank´s for help

You can create an index on a field so you can search by just that field. Eg:
texis -d /path/to/your/database -s "create metamorph inverted index xmtitle on html(Title)"
You'll have to do that by hand after each walk.
Then you'll have to customize the search script to search by "Title" instead of "Title\Description\Keywords\Meta\Body".
Using Webinator to index pages created by a CMS (content management system) is outside the bounds of acceptable use in most cases. (See last section of the Webinator license agreement.) Users wishing to do this should contact Thunderstone Sales for a special license allowing that.
I have a similar problem, but I would like one of the meta tags to be a date tag (foxdate). What is the best way for the search results to be ordered by foxdate? Will the SQL engine recognize the foxdate meta tag as being a "date" data type and know how to order by foxdate? Or, will it by default sort the results according to how foxdate is ordered as a string?
