Suggestions for search function options

Hi,
What utility would you recommend for a search button / field on a non-ecommerce site?
I've heard about Google and MS Indexing, but I am looking for something that stays within my site so that my brand header / template is present at all times during the visitor's visit.
Please share your knowledge, thanks!

Is there any setting that will cause the returned page to open to the first occurrence of the word/phrase searched upon?
Not that I have ever heard of.
Is there any setting that prevents "Ctl+F" from opening a Find dialog?
Why do you want to disable Ctrl F, surely that is what the user wants to find the word in the topic?

  • Refresh dataTable for Search function

    Hi,
    I have a page that contains a dataTable and search function for the dataTable. Basically once i clicked into that page it will display the current day records for me. At the below of the dataTable, it have a search function. So once i click the search button with my search criteria, how i refresh my dataTable to display the records?
    My dataTable already bind with the current day
    <h:dataTable id="outbound" value="#{Outbound.current}" var="sms" bgcolor="#F1F1F1" border="1" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" first="0" rows="10" width="100%" columnClasses="outcol1,outcol2,outcol3">
                                        <h:column>
                                            <f:facet name="header">
                                                <h:outputText value="Date-In" />
                                            </f:facet>
                                             <h:outputText value="#{sms.datein}" /> 
                                        </h:column>
                                        <h:column>
                                            <f:facet name="header">
                                                <h:outputText value="SMS Date" />
                                            </f:facet>
                                             <h:outputText value="#{sms.smsdate}" /> 
                                        </h:column>
                                        <h:column>
                                            <f:facet name="header">
                                                <h:outputText value="Del Date" />
                                            </f:facet>
                                             <h:outputText value="#{sms.dndate}" /> 
                                        </h:column>
                                        <h:column>
    </h:dataTable>So how to refresh the dataTable? Unless I do a rebind where I have one dataTable is for current day and another one is for search?
    Thanks.

    Yup. I would like to re-render my dataTable after i clicked Search button. So the dataTable will display my search result.
    So existing dataTable unable to do it? Currently I'm using Apache Tomahawk for my dataTable.
    If you want to re-render the datatable without submitting the page, you will have to use Ajax. If you can allow submitting of page, then just change(refresh) the list in the backing bean that you have value-bound to the h:datatable in jsp.
    Another thing, I'm not sure i'm doing it correct or not. Now my dataTable is bind with the getCurrentDay function. So can i re-render it? Will it re-render and getting the same output since it already tied with current day function.
    See the above comment.

  • Suggestions for caching stock option prices?

    I will be putting realtime stock option prices into a cache and intend to use backup-count=0. The market data feed delivers 100,000+ updates/sec so I will coalesce that in a feed handler which will do batch inserts as rapidly as my cluster can handle them. Applications will listen for updates on options for a particular underlying stock, options with a strike price within a range, etc. Should there be an index? Should I use some partition affinity so, for example, all options on MSFT stay together?
    I'm considering these for key / value objects but I'm wondering about the duplicity between fields in both objects. Maybe remove those dupe values from the quote and have each quote maintain a reference to its key? The identifying data in the key comes included from the exchange with each quote as a String and I decode root symbol, expiration, call/put & strike price from that String.
    I could also use that identifying String as-is for a key and include the values it represents in the quote (with indexes).
    Or have a second cache, KeyString->DecodedKeyValuesObject. If I use a 2nd cache then I think it would be a replicated near cache with backup-count=1 since this data would be minimal size and loaded once per day and not updated, right?
    public class OpraKey implements PortableObject{
        public static final char CALL = 'C';
        public static final char PUT = 'P';
        public String optionRoot; // ie, MSFT
        public Date expiration;
        public char callOrPut;
        public BigDecimal strike; // ie $40.00
        @Override
        public void readExternal(PofReader reader) throws IOException {
            optionRoot = reader.readString(0);
            expiration = reader.readDate(1);
            callOrPut = reader.readChar(2);
            strike = reader.readBigDecimal(3);
        @Override
        public void writeExternal(PofWriter writer) throws IOException {
            writer.writeString(0, optionRoot);
            writer.writeDate(1, expiration);
            writer.writeChar(2, callOrPut);
            writer.writeBigDecimal(3, strike);
    }and the quote...
    public class OpraQuote implements PortableObject {
        public static final char CALL = 'C';
        public static final char PUT = 'P';
    // never change
        public String optionRoot;
        public Date expiration;
        public char callOrPut;
        public BigDecimal strike;
    //change frequently
        public float bid;
        public float ask;
        public float last;
        public int bidSize;
        public int askSize;
        public int lastTradeSize;
        @Override
        public void readExternal(PofReader reader) throws IOException {
            symbol = reader.readString(0);
            optionRoot = reader.readString(1);
            expiration = reader.readDate(2);
            callOrPut = reader.readChar(3);
            strike = reader.readBigDecimal(4);
            bid = reader.readFloat(5);
            ask = reader.readFloat(6);
            last = reader.readFloat(7);
            bidSize = reader.readInt(8);
            askSize = reader.readInt(9);

            writer.writeString(1, optionRoot);

    TBH, for relatively small object updates (financial ones, like yours and mine), I've not found POF to be that much "faster" then non-POF (which is to be expected.) Main benefit I've found from POF format is the compaction it offers. We have a certain set of data which is also about 400k, similar to yours, and we've found storing it in POF format saves us around 75% of the memory space.
    The "putAll()" will give you a dramatic speed-up normally. I've regularly seen ~5 fold improvement in insert rate. As regards updates, if not very much of your object is changing, you might want to look at using Entry Processors (we use these to handle incoming Trades), as they save you sending lots of repeated data over the wire. Guess the same rules apply for your POFUpdater. Test both approaches and see.
    You'll want to have lots of service threads on your storage-enabled nodes, and consider running highly threaded clients to pump data at the caches. Using such techniques you should be able to insert/update many 10k-40k entires per second on a relatively modest cluster. As I mentioned yesterday, if you are looking to hit 100k per second, that's very high, and you may saturate your LAN segment first. Multiple LAN segments may help here, along with having lots of client "feeder" instances spread across LANs/servers to help feed your caches.
    Also be very careful of concurrency on your data. You may find that even though you have a large number of entries, only a small proportion of them are hit repeatedly. These small "hot spots" can be a real bottleneck. We hold a "hit stat" field against our objects to see how often they were updated, so we can see the dynamics of our system (and view this data via JMX.)
    Take your point about backup-count=0, but remember that the "pause" to rebuild/rebalance could be significant. And with 100k per second worth of entries still flowing into your system under such circumstances, you could quickly fall behind.
    Cheers,
    Steve

  • Need suggestion for searching words in a document

    Is there any option to search the words in a document, where I want to make a user designed words or phrases saved itself in a PDF docment. For e.g I need to search the data with words like Salary, Compensation, Remuneration, etc in an annual report (PDF Version). For which I need to type these words hundreds of times everyday.

  • E-Recruiting Search functionality for Candidate in Talent Pool

    For search functionality of candidates in the talent pool, does anyone have any idea how the ranking percentage is calculated??  There is no clear documentation out there about what factors are used and how they are weighted.  I am aware that additional ranking that can be defined in the configuration and also questionaire results can influence this ranking as well.
    However, in the absence of this additional ranking in talent management and questionaire results to job postings, are the selection criteria for the search the only items taken into account for calculation for this ranking percentage? 
    What is everyone else's experiences in the fact that search functionality tends to treat the various selection criteria as 'OR' conditions?  The client I am working for is unhappy that candidates who don't match every set of selection criteria are being displayed on the hitlist.  Would like to hear what other client's responses has been to this...
    Sandra

    Had directed this question to SAP and did not get an adequate response to date with regards to how ranking is calculated.
    However, SAP did respond to why search functionality treating the various selection criteria as 'OR' conditions for searching candidates in Talent Pool.  This is due to configuration values in tables T77RCF_SRCH_ATTC and T77RCF_SRCH_ATTR.  The field RANKING must be set to blank value.  SAP delivers this as 'X' - ranking percentage is calculated.  This change now makes the combination of various selection criteria elements as 'AND' conditions, and the ranking percentage is no longer displayed.

  • Search-Function without TREX server ?

    Hello to all,
    I want to use the Search-Function but we don't have a TREX server. Can I nevertheless use it? Which iView can I take? And which settings do I need?
    Are there guidances for it?
    Thank you and regards.
    Galyna

    Galyna,
    No unfortunately you cannot - TREX is required for search functionality and as such there is nothing else built into Portal/CM that will do the same thing.
    I would guess it is not worth your effort trying to do your own thing !!!!

  • Search function for own Shapes

    Hallo,
    i want to search for my selfmade Visio Shapes.
    The Visio search function can´t find my Shapes. I copied my Shapes in C:\Users\Username\Documents\My Shapes but is doesent work.
    What´s my mistake?
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi,
    In regarding of the issue, please provide us more information to assist you better.
    Which Visio's version do you use? Visio 2013 or other.
    Did you get some error messages? Like: Could not find a match.  Please search again.
    Did you search the build-in shapes?
    If you can't search all of the local shapes, this issue may be caused by the "windows search" option disabled. Please see this
    thread, I copied the suggestion here:
    ======
    I have new information on the issue with 64-bit systems and Visio 2007/2003 versions.  I was incorrect when I stated this was not able to work properly on 64-bit systems.
    The missing link in our testing has been the enabling of the Indexing Service after the installation of the 64-bit IFilter Pack from the download centerhttp://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=60c92a37-719c-4077-b5c6-cac34f4227cc 
    (Note that there are two downloads - choose the 64-bit one for your 64-bit OS)
    1) Ensure your OS has Indexing enabled:
       Windows 7 and Windows Vista: Control Panel / Programs / Turn WIndows features on or off / Enable "Indexing Service" / OK  [ restart if required ]
       Windows XP: Control Panel / Add or Remove Programs / Add/Remove Windows Components / Enable "Indexing Service" / Next / Finish
    2) Download and install the IFilter pack above. 
    3) Enable Visio shapes indexing.
        a) When Visio is first launched, it may prompt users to enable the Indexing Service.
        b) Manually - Open the Tools / Options dialog, select the Shape Search tab, click on Visio Local Shapes and then click the "Properties" button, ensure the option "Yes, enable Indexing Service" is selected.
        NOTE ... If Visio cannot find its Index catalog, you may see an error "1.  Visio Local Shapes - The Visio Indexing Service Catalog does not exist.  Please repair the Visio installation."  To recover from this,
    close Visio and all other Office applications, and use the Control Panel to repair the Visio installation, then restart your computer.
    Also -make sure that the Indexing Service is actually started, as it may be set to Manual startup versus Automatic.  Check in the Administrative Tools / Services app.
    After these components are installed / configured, restart the computer.  You may need to allow some time for indexing of your local files to be completed.  Once the indexing is complete, you should start to see improved results.  Let me know
    if this helps with searching for Visio shapes on 64-bit operating systems.

    If you have any update, please feel free let me know.

  • I recently downloaded 6.1.2 and am regretting it...for one reason...the search function no longer works correctly. !!

    I personally and professionally rely on text messaging extensively. Since upgrade, the search function doesn't work correctly. It only returns partial results. This has never happened with previous upgrades.  All the old texts are there but it does not search the entire history.  If i compose new text and duplicate the recipients from an old text, it will bring up string...just cant search for it.  PLEASE HELP SOMEONE.

I can no longer see the "auto cover lock" option.
    The iPad cover lock is for when you use a cover with magnets in it to lock and unlock the iPad when you close the cover or open it. Try running a refrigerator magnet along the sides of the iPad and see if that trips the iPad Cover Lock back into the settings.
    That is not the same thing as the iPad Auto Lock setting which allows you to set an allotted time before the iPad goes to sleep.
    You can try resetting all settings to see if the Auto Lock feature retinrs to the iPad.
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. This can be a little time consuming re-entering all of the device settings again.

  • Best / most popular software or scripts for adding search function to website?

    I'm trying to find a good piece of software or script for implementing a site search function into our website.  I am relatively knowledgeable in Dreamweaver and can write CSS and XHTML at the fairly intermediate to advanced level, as well as work with JavaScript and js files, but I don't really know much ASP or "by hand" Java coding.  Their are so many scripts and software out there for adding a site search that it's hard to sort through and narrow down.  I was hoping to find reviews of the popular ones or "top 10 lists" of some sort that would help me pinpoint a good one, but can't find anything like that.  These are the primary needs of the website:
    --Has under 50 searchable pages that won't change much and probably won't exceed 50. There are product part numbers and descriptions for some 250-300 part numbers, spread across only 24 of those pages.  The remaining pages are important but no part numbers-- About Us, News, Where to Buy, History, Featured Products, etc.  The product pages are very much like an online store but we don't sell directly on the site (only thru distributors/reps).
    --We are trying to keep the price under about $50, or use a free solution
    --The pages are all static XHTML+CSS pages, but our server can run ASP (we have another website for one of our other product line divisions, on the same server, with many more products beyond 1000, which was programmed completely in ASP by an outside company about 4 years ago).  We self-host both sites.
    --Our server can't run PHP
    --The search capabilities need only be rather basic-- a keyword search with a results page that uses the same design template as the rest of the site.  It would be nice, but not mandatory, to have a search filter and/or a drop down menu to enable selectively searching only certain parts of the site, or only product/part number search vs. general search, etc. (but again, not mandatory).
    --I do have a sitemap page already on it, if that matters or helps
    Some of the ones I've found so far that looked the most promising include:  Zoom Search Engine (http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/), Site Search Pro (http://www.site-search-pro.com/), and FX Site Search which is a DW Extension I found in the exchange (http://www.felixone.it/extensions/prod/mxssen.asp)-- (that one looks possibly technically challenging or requiring more ASP skill, though)
    Forgive me if there is a better area to post this, if so let me know.

    For a static site, your options are:
    Google ~  http://www.google.com/sitesearch/
    Freefind ~ http://www.freefind.com/
    Zoom from Wrensoft ~ http://www.wrensoft.com/zoom/
