Richard, You mention that the server probably doesn't have PHP configured - that's too bad, becuase if it did there is a great freeware spider that is very customizable, and result page extracts. PHPDig : http://www.phpdig.net/. It also requires a MySQL backend. I'm running it on my site (http://gord.macleod.name), and while it is slow spidering it is blazingly fast searching. gord ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca
