you know of anything similar to www mech written in php? .. although I may get
the blessing to go ahead and use perl for this.. I could perhaps
give them the "use the best tool for the job" speech. So that not the
real point of this (please no php flame wars). </SPAN></FONT></DIV>

simple site search engine.. doesn't need to be incredibly complex
(i.e., no OR NOT etc needed). problem is we have a somewhat archaic
permissions system on our pages (at least IMHO, I'd rather store them in a
database)... I cangrep pages for keywords and figure out what pages could
might match, but I need to "see the page as the current user" so I know if
they have permisisons. I thought, if I used www::mech or similar while "logged
in as" the particular user doing the search, I will know if they can see the
page or not... and if so, return it as a search result.
