search results page, using mod_rewrite, and better results displayed?

Post by rudydude »

I have a few issues with the search module in CMSMS.

1) I have created a page called "search-results" and used it in pageresult="search-results". However, when I perform a search on (for example):

www.site.com/page1.htm, the results show up on:

www.site.com/page1.htm?mact=Search%2Ccn ... eturnid=34.

Is there a way to get the results to show up on www.site.com/search-results.htm?mact=Se ... eturnid=34?

2) Further to my Question 1, is there a way to use mod_rewrite to get the search results to display at :
www.site.com/search-results.htm?search=Enter+Search... without all the other strings cluttering up the address bar?

3) Is there a way to get the search results to display a few words of text with each link. So, for example, instead of getting a list of results like:

Page 1 - Page 1 (100%)
Page 2 - Page 2 (80%)


They would display as:

Page 1 - Some text from the linked page related to the search...
Page 2 - Maybe 5 words before and five words after?


Any and all help is much appreciated!
