[Xerte-dev] Re: Searching inside a published object

[Mark Berthelemy]

Hi Julian,

That's exactly what I'm expecting.

I thought PHP would be necessary, because somewhere you'd have to build an index file containing text and relevant page links. This index file would be created at the point of publishing and stored with the learning object. At that point you can start using Javascript in the browser to traverse the index when the form is submitted.

Javascript can't spider across all the pages can it? Unless you're using node.js on the server?
