For some time now we've been looking for a way to search from a specified group of websites (added to on a continuous basis by myself) using the 'live' database of one of the search engines.
I've now found a way of doing this a post on Erik Benson's website - he pointe out that Alltheweb.com allows the searching of an unlimited number of multiple domains at the same time:
http://alltheweb.com/search?q=[vti]&advanced=1&dincl=imeche.org.uk+cetr.com+vti-europe.org
What I want to be able to do is incorporate a version of the above code into a standard "Alltheweb.com" search box. I will manually add domains to the above line as I find them, all I want the end user to be able to do is search within them via a standard search box.
Here's the code for the "Alltheweb.com" search box:
<form action="http://www.alltheweb.com/search" method="get"> <p><img src="http://www.alltheweb.com/g/atwlogo_small.gif"
width="94" height="16" alt="AlltheWeb :: find it all" /><input name="q" size="30" /> <input name="cat" type="hidden" value="web" /> <input name="charset" type="hidden" value="selected" /><input type="submit" value="Web Search" /></p> </form>
More versions can be found at: http://alltheweb.com/help/webmaster/add_to_site
I'm not a programmer so this is beyond me. Is the above a fairly simple process and, if so, would someone be able to post some code up for me?
Thanks
