Error: must supply a URL parameter.
Overview
========
The proxy.pl redirect script is a utility to be used with the Kanada.Net
Search Engine.
What It Does
============
Visitors who wish to view a search result can request this proxy.pl script
instead, with the destination URL passed as a parameter. This proxy script
will request the URL on their behalf, and then display it to the visitor
with all search terms highlighted in bold yellow. This should help the
visitor find the sought-after information.
This script is an optional add-on to KSE. It is generally slower than
having the visitor request the document directly. This will not work on
web servers that do not have sockets privileges, or that must use a proxy
server.
How To Enable
=============
First, install KSE and make sure it works normally for normal search
results.
Next, test the proxy.pl script by requesting it directly. You should be able
to enter a test URL and search terms to make sure it works okay. Then edit
the "line_listing.txt" template. Add a link below the search results as
follows:
View with Highlighted Search Terms
You must have KSE version 2.0.0.0050 or newer, in order to have the
%url_terms% and %url_url% variable available. (%url_url% refers to
"url-encoded URL").
On some systems, proxy.pl will be named proxy.cgi. On those systems, simply
use that alternate filename.
