The ATG distribution provides no components of the SearchFormHandler class; Because there are so many possible combinations of search options—keyword, text, hierarchical, advanced, combination—you should create a unique SearchFormHandlercomponent for each search method that you use.
In order to provide a search engine for your Web site, complete these two tasks:
Create a
SearchFormHandlercomponent in the ACC. Define the component’s Class and Scope properties as follows:Class:
atg.repository.servlet.SearchFormHandlerScope: session
Configure the Basic SearchFormHandler Properties that are common to all search types, then configure the properties that are specific to the desired search type.
