NAME
WWW::Search::AltaVista::Intranet3 - class for searching via AltaVista Search Intranet 3.0SYNOPSIS
use WWW::Search;
my $oSearch = new WWW::Search('AltaVista::Intranet3',
(_host => 'copper', _port => 9000),);
my $sQuery = WWW::Search::escape_query("+investment +club");
$oSearch->native_query($sQuery);
while (my $oResult = $oSearch->next_result())
{ print $oResult->url, "\n"; }
DESCRIPTION
This class implements a search on AltaVista's Intranet (``AVI''
) Search.
This class exports no public interface; all interaction should be done through WWW::Search objects.
NOTES
If your query includes characters outside the 7-bit ascii, you must tellAVI
how to interpret 8-bit characters.
Add an option for 'enc' to the native_query() call:
$oSearch->native_query(WWW::Search::escape_query('Zürich'),
{ 'enc' => 'iso88591'},
);
Hopefully the correct values for various languages can be found in the
AVI
documentation (sorry, I haven't looked).
TESTING
There is no standard built-in test mechanism for this module, because very few users of WWW::Search will haveAVI
installed on their
intranet. (How's that for an excuse? ;-)
