dtSearch Web is a search engine that you can install on a Web server to publish documents on your web site. It can perform fast indexed searches using the same search features that dtSearch Desktop supports -- fuzzy searching, phonic searching, natural language searching, boolean logic, proximity, etc. Indexed documents can be in any format that dtSearch supports, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, WordPerfect, RTF, and ZIP archives.
After a search, dtSearch Web will convert documents as needed to HTML for display, with hits highlighted. If a retrieved document is already in HTML, dtSearch Web will display it with hits highlighted while preserving the HTML attributes (so links and images will work in your browser).
dtSearch Web requires Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) version 4 or later. This version is available as part of the Windows NT Option Pack, and is included with Windows 2000, Windows 2003 Server, and Windows XP.
With a CD publisher license, you can also use dtSearch Web to publish documents on a CD. dtSearch Web can run from a CD without installing any software on the user's computer, using any current web browser to access the CD. Search forms, search results, and hit highlighting will work exactly the same on the CD as they do in dtSearch Web running from a web server.
