Search Engine In Flash 5
Hi,
I wish to create a searche engine with flash. My goal is to search in a fixed 292 lines text file for a word. Exemple : I'm typing "vig" and the search engine find a line containing "vignole" then send me a variable containing the word plus 2 others attached variables.
It's for searching a street name then locate on a plan the street requested.
I wish to do this without php or sgbd if possible.
Could someone help me please ?
I don't know if I had to create an array or if I had to make a if then else test which seems to me a bit un-optimized ;-)
Thanks for your response(s)...

Help With Flash/XML Search Engine.
Hi,
Since my last post I've found some tutorials and I'm now okay with importing XML documents into flash array's and displaying them etc.
I'm now trying to put together a search engine that will search through the keywords of each artile in my XML document.
Can anybody give me any help at all on how to create a flash code that will search for keywords in an XML document and then display the results.
I know it can be done because I've got an example of it, but I'm not very sure how it works.
The file that I have is located at:

Thanks for any help.

Search Engine In Flash
I don't know if this is the correct section to post in but here goes. I was wondering if it would be at all possible to do the following.
I want to be able to put a small serach feature into my stand alone flash project without any external input.
I want set a search box in a certain scene and have it so that if a person types in a word from a predefined list it will take them to the proper keyframe with info on that word. Also if the word they type in id not on the list it will go to a keyframe telling them that there is no such word.
Is this even possible to do in flash at all? I am not that great actionscript and in fact I know very little so I am looking for help and or tutorials on this. Really any help would be great.

Search Engine In Flash, Not The Web
I'm creating a "virtual catalogue" if you will in flash 8. There are six catalogues, each having several pages. I need to create a search engine so the user can quickly search within one catalogue or throughout the six catalogues to find a word or phrase. This is not going to be online, but a dvd so it has nothing to do with the web. I've searched online and even in the flash help files, but i can't find any information on the subject. Can anyone direct me somewhere or help me with this one?
Thanks!

XML And Flash Search Engine
Need some backup over here people....
I started a search engine in flash for a small 15 pages website,and in these cases I think it's best to create an XML file as a database... I need to say that I am a beginner in using actionscript and Macromedia Flash as I used other software before...
here is the progress so far:
Search engine
and here is the XML file to get an idea:
XML file
there are some words in Romanian, as I requested some help on a forum but no luck... but the idea is to enter one of the words in the ""...
so... now to the problems:
1).I need to compare the VAR entered by the user in the search box with the DESCRIPTION from the XML, what I was able to do is to compare if they are equal, that means you need to enter the exact description to get a result, what I need to obtain is for example to enter "goo" and still get the result for GOOGLE, or "gle" or whatever...
2). I also need to use the search button as a trigger and also the key ENTER, I was able to do it but not together, it was either ENTER or the button, I need to specify here that the function from the onRelease command of the button is a very complex one, if needed I can upload the FLA file but I don't wanna mess with your head, as you may not understand my work(I say this because I am a beginner and I am sure there are several ways to do it, and I just might have chosen a harder way).

Flash Search Engine
Hey guys here's another scripting question (I hope not too hard)
I have a site in which most of the text I display is being imported from external text files. Is there any way I can create a search "engine" for the site? I think it can be done by reading through each of the text files and looking for the words that the user is searching for and then displaying the results.
I was thinking of using arrays somehow and storing the file names inside the array then searching through each file for the specific words. But I'm not sure on how to go about actually performing the search.
Any ideas?

Flash Search Engine
im trying to use a .swf that can control or use an ASP based search engine i created. i know its possible considering the tut that kirupa has with the atomz.com search and the XML database input form tut. Im just not sure on how to go about it, what i basically want is to make an input form in flash where you type whatever word and press enter (i know how to make the hotkeys and most of the script, just need help on one part) and it actually inputs that word in the ASP input box and initializes the search. basically you press enter and the results appear.
i would input the search box in the actual page but.. i also have php on the same page and what the hell, i want a search through flash, thats cool.
if anyone can help me that would be great, in return for the favor, i'll give you a copy of the search engine to use for yourself. you dont have to give credits to me.
Edit: you can test out the engine on one of the sites i created www.varelahs.com at the bottom.

Flash Search Engine SDK
I downloaded the Flash Search Engine SDK, ran it through the command prompt and generated an .html file.
My question is, what do I do with this .html file containing the text/links from within my .swf?
Do I upload into my default directory? I don't get how having a random .html page filled with text from within my .swf will help with search engines... How will a google search show my index.html rather then my .html file that I generated through the Flash Search Engine SDK?
Do I just put a re-direct script on my generated .html page? Or will google think I was trying to trick them?
Thank You!

Search Engine -user Can Search His Pictures With Keywords- HELP
I was reading about search engines and I came across a post. Being fairly new to flash I do not know how to develop this. I have a client who owns a small furniture store. I am setting up his site. He wants it to be all flash based. He has about 300 pictures of his products.I need to make a search engine in Flash so that the user can search his pictures with keywords. I read a suggestion that would fit my needs- create an array of picture names then use a loop to check if the keyword is in the array. I have been going through tutorials with no luck- can someone please help. Maybe start the code the person is talking about so I can just expand on that.

Search Engine Optimization And Flash
Lately, I've taken to steering my clients toward HTML or HTML/Flash hybrids because of the problems ranking Flash with the search engines...... I miss doing full Flash sites.
Does anyone know of any ENGINE FRIENDLY techniques to allow the SE to see what's in your content?
I noticed that back in Flash 4 the HTML generated by Flash actually had all the text used in the movie within the code. Flash no longer does this. Anybody know why? Seemed like a good idea....

Flash And Search Engine Optimization.
Does any one have any good tips on how to rank up in search engines? SEO's I've heard that having a html intro page is good and bad, along with that I've also heard that Auto-redirecting is a good way achieving some upward trends in rank. Or backward linking.
I'm using Flash 8 for flash and Dreamweaver for my html intro page. If anyone has any tips or could view my site and give some direction please let me know.

Does Flash 8 have a way of indexing content?
Thanks

[F8] Flash Search Engine Optimisation
Hello people!
I have a pressing issues with a website I did in full-flash.
It’s a corporate website I just completed - www.tsa-solutions.com
I do realise that most search engines cannot index flash sites/files, but the client never told me the importance of their website being searchable by search engines, mainly google & yahoo, so I am kinda stuck now that none of the search engines are displaying results when you try searching.
The whole site just went LIVE only a couple of days ago, and here’s the few things I have done to try improving the searchability:
* added a meta tag with plenty of related keywords
* added a <!-- sample text --> to the <head> of the html index page
* added the url to google, yahoo & msn search sites
* used a few FREE site submission tool to 75+ search engines
And here’s the list of things I am going to add, from where i have read from some articles that MAY improve the searchability:
* adding a meta data in flash 8 capability to flash files
* adding a z-order layer in html files underneath the .swf ( http://www.pagetraffic.com/guide/fla...h-engines.php)
I would so greatly appreciate your opinions on this? Have asked a few people but they strongly suggest I re-do the site to be a hybrid flash + html pages. That is the last thing I want to do coz then I look really stupid to my client..
Thanks guys!

I've seen many full flash sites with no HTML and was wondering how they achieve good SEO results.
Is there a way of adding meta tag data to flash files to help improve SEO.
Can anyone elaborate more on this subject for me...

Flash - SEARCH ENGINE OPTIMIZATION
I went through many threads on net seeking for how to get a better search engine (such as Google) ranking for my sites. Does anybody know about a proper way how this can be done?
I found out many flash site use in a for METADATA in HTML such as "keyword" or "description" but that's it.
I was kind of confused reading how Google goes through the actual SWF files.

Flash Search Engine Idea
Hey guys,
I really want to create something that can be used as a tiny search engine for a site that can be fully controlled, unlike the google search which you have no control over. Also, if for some reason you're trying to create a personal resource page or whatever on your machine, it would also work on your local machine without having xxamp or something like that installed in order to work with mysql or php. I think there's potential here.
With a little bit of work, and some modifications to load the info from an xml file, this could be very handy. Feel free to modify it, and if you come up with some cool additions to it, feel free to post back.

Flash Search Engine Image
Hello, I have a website and within that website I have images (gallery that loads external .jpg's). The entire site is made in flash except for the external .jpgs that load within it.
My question is, when I type the name of my site/keywords related to me, it shows up on regular search but when I do an image search, it doesn't show up anything related to my site. I know it will show up if the site is in HTML but it doesn't show up if the site is made within flash. What I want to do is when someone types my name, I want it to show up in the image search as well but since the images are loaded externally within flash, its really hard. any help would appreciated.
