Waddell Hi Cynthia We have been doing some work with the Microsoft Site Server search engine in our Exploit Interactive web magazine. We have just released a Dublin Core-aware search facility, which provides searching across various areas of the magazine (e.g. issue 1, Regular Features, articles about projects funded by the European Union). The search facility is available at http://www.exploit-lib.org/cat_search/ A description of the architecture is available at http://www.exploit-lib.org/issue5/metadata/ Although this type of search interface can be implemented using a backend database, the advantage of using a standard such as Dublin Core is that the data can be reused by remote applications. I'd be interested to hear if there are any accessibility problems with the interface.
