Just thought you might be interested in seeing how I've used the
PATH_INFO cgi variable to specify the index to be used.
Go to
http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/search/linuxers/
and
http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/search/life/
I use the same namazu, called search. the terms after search in the url
(/linuxers/ and /life/) don't exist, and are passed to namazu as the
PATH_INFO cgi variable. I've changed namazu to use the contents of this
variable to determine which index to use.
If an idxname is set through a form variable on the page, that will
override the PATH_INFO.
If you think it is useful, I will submit a patch to do this.
It is based on 2.0.7
The advantage is that I can have exactly the same templates, and the
same namazurc files, I just change the url. I could also specify
?idxname=linuxers, etc, but then that doesn't make it transparent to the
user. Just thought that this was a better way to do it.
