Hi all, Can someone shed some light on how searching is done on web-sites like del.icio.us? If I enter "js"(1), "javascript"(2) or "java script"(3) as my query on delicious, I'm pointed to resources about Java Script. However, depending on the query the returned result sets are different(del.icio.us system returns different set of boo...
I need to find a number of objects from a large container. The only way I can think of to do that seems to be to just search the container for one item at a time in a loop, however, even which an efficient search with an average case of say "log n" (where n is the size of the container), this gives me "m log n" (where m is the number of...

Hello, It's probably something really simple, but I'm just learning. There's a page with 3 blockquote tags on it, and I'd need to get the innerHTML of the one containing a certain string. I don't know how to search/match a string and get the innerHTML of the tag containing the matched result. Any help would be appreciated for this new...
I would like to have a ComboBox control on a form which will be used to search a list of investments as the user types. I can do this easily if I cache the entire collection of investments from the database on startup (currently 3,000 or so items), but I would prefer to not do that if it isn't necessary. The behavior that I am trying t...
So there's this nifty _trackPageview() api method on a tracker object, but is there a corresponding method that can be used to manually track a search? In other words, _trackPageview() reports to GA that a user hit a page. I want something like _trackSearch("terms") that would report to GA that a user searched for something. ...
I'm now in the final stages of upgrading the hierarchy design in a major transactional system, and I have been staring for a while at this 150-line query (which I'll spare you all the tedium of reading) and thinking that there has got to be a better way. A quick summary of the question is as follows: How would you implement a hierarchi...

"showImagesResults100" and "showImagesResults102", e...

I'd like to use Urban Airship to send push notifications to a user's iPhone when a new Twitter Search result is found. I'm pretty positive I'd need a web app built to accomplish this - to register the user's iPhone, save their search terms and poll Twitter Search. How could I go about building this app (in terms of which language to us...
I have a database full of phrases (80-100 characters), and some longish documents (50-100Kb), and I would like a ranked list of phrases for a given document; rather than the usual output of a search engine, list of documents for a given phrase. I've used MYSQL fulltext indexing before, and looked into lucene, but never used it. They bot...
