Web Query Application Overview

A common use of Oracle Text is to index HTML files on web sites and provide search capabilities to users. The sample application in this Appendix indexes a set of HTML files stored in the database and uses a web server connected to Oracle to provide the search service.

There are two versions of this application. One that uses PL/SQL Server Pages (PSP) and one that uses Java Server Pages (JSP). This appendix describes the PSP application. You can view and download both the PSP and JSP application code at the Oracle Technology Network web site:
