What's the best way to search a Zope site?
Hi all, I guess the subject says it all, but I'd like some advice on how best to do the search thang. I've fiddled with Catalog in the past, but didn't really understand it. Most of our site is served from SQL databases, but we do have a considerable amount of content in DTML Methods and Documents on the site too. Our platform is Solaris, Zope 2.3.0-src and Python 1.5.2 TIA muchly, Tone. -- Dr Tony McDonald, Assistant Director, FMCC, http://www.fmcc.org.uk/ The Medical School, Newcastle University Tel: +44 191 243 6140 A Zope list for UK HE/FE http://www.fmcc.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/zope

Hiya Tony :-) Use the SQL DBs own searching mechanisms for searching them, and ZCatalog for the rest. It's really cool and quite a doddle once you get the hang of it... cheers, Chris

Hiya Tony :-)
Yup. Back in Zopista-ville after a long hiatus - will probably be asking lots of questions about Zope and Mac-OSX (and hopefully contributing solutions!). Also planning on getting some XML-RPC/SOAP and RSS type work done.

Dieter mentioned some HowTos on the Zope site, I'll check those out. I hope the learning curve isn't too steep! :) Thanks for the help Chris and Dieter.
