Quickly and easily add very flexible and robust search facilities to your website or any HTML document library. As a standalone file server Boolean Search can serve its search results independently of any web server making it perfect for users who want to.
• search their own personal collections of files
• provide enhanced website search features not offered by Internet search engines,
• provide search over small intranets, such as for a small business office, library or classroom.
As its name suggests Boolean Search supports content queries that use boolean and regular expressions, as well as phrase and proximity searches, fuzzy and partial word searches and similarity search. Optional spell checking on queries provides a "Did you mean?" functionality similar to Google.
Boolean Search can extract an expansive variety of file information for the search results page including various kinds of summaries, icons, meta tag information and standard file attributes. A novel feature of Boolean Search is its "Site Index" generator which serves up a linked index of all the words a site contains. Boolean Search also generates documents with search terms highlighted to help a user determine their relevancy. Paging and sorting mechanisms are available to manage browsing the collection of found files.
