| mdke | kirkland: around? | 21:14 |
|---|---|---|
| kirkland | mdke: for a few minutes | 21:14 |
| mdke | kirkland: ah, ok. Another time then :) | 21:14 |
| kirkland | mdke: i was just looking at the search stuff | 21:14 |
| kirkland | mdke: i have about 15 or so | 21:15 |
| mdke | ah, that will be enough | 21:15 |
| kirkland | mdke: then i have to bring the dog to the vet ;-) | 21:15 |
| mdke | :( | 21:15 |
| mdke | i was going to ask about how to plug the search into a page so that maybe I can work at building it into the themes for help.u.c | 21:15 |
| mdke | I tried building it into the Moin theme, but didn't get that far | 21:15 |
| kirkland | mdke: ah, sure, it's pretty straightforward | 21:16 |
| mdke | I got it into the page alright, just didn't understand how to generate the results | 21:16 |
| kirkland | mdke: so where do you want the results? | 21:16 |
| kirkland | mdke: on a special "search results" page? | 21:16 |
| mdke | I guess so, what are the alternatives | 21:17 |
| mdke | ? | 21:17 |
| kirkland | http://people.ubuntu.com/~kirkland/search.html | 21:17 |
| kirkland | mdke: that's all on the same page | 21:17 |
| kirkland | mdke: search for a term, and you'll just see the results inserted into the page | 21:17 |
| kirkland | mdke: http://manpages.ubuntu.com/ | 21:17 |
| kirkland | mdke: that one has the search box in the header, and the result return on a separate search page | 21:18 |
| mdke | that's the one we want | 21:18 |
| kirkland | mdke: (use the text search) | 21:18 |
| kirkland | mdke: okay.... | 21:18 |
| kirkland | mdke: see the code for the ubuntu-manpage-repository | 21:18 |
| kirkland | mdke: bzr branch lp:ubuntu-manpage-repository | 21:18 |
| mdke | ok | 21:19 |
| kirkland | mdke: so you have the search box already in the header? | 21:19 |
| kirkland | mdke: or do i need to show you how to do that? | 21:19 |
| kirkland | mdke: what will be the page where search results will appear? | 21:20 |
| kirkland | mdke: it can be simple html | 21:20 |
| mdke | yes, I have that | 21:20 |
| kirkland | mdke: http://help.ubuntu.com/search.html ? | 21:20 |
| mdke | I guess we need to create a page on help.ubuntu.com for all search results | 21:20 |
| mdke | exactly | 21:20 |
| kirkland | mdke: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/57136/ | 21:21 |
| kirkland | mdke: that's what goes in the header | 21:21 |
| kirkland | note the form action= bit | 21:21 |
| mdke | yeah, that's the thing I have | 21:21 |
| kirkland | mdke: modify that if you decide on a different destination for the search results | 21:21 |
| mdke | plus some javascript | 21:21 |
| mdke | i mean, some more javascript | 21:21 |
| kirkland | mdke: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/57138/ | 21:22 |
| mdke | I was trying to figure out how to narrow the search bar a bit, but I think I can just checkout the source of manpages.ubuntu.com and figure it out | 21:22 |
| kirkland | mdke: put that where you want the results | 21:22 |
| mdke | ahh. | 21:23 |
| kirkland | mdke: just change size="22" in the text box input element | 21:23 |
| mdke | magnificent | 21:23 |
| mdke | ok, thanks a bunch | 21:23 |
| kirkland | mdke: all the code for managing the indexed sites, priorities, etc. is hosted on the google CSE site | 21:23 |
| kirkland | mdke: i tried to set it up for us to share access, but i'm not sure we ever got that working properly | 21:24 |
| mdke | yes, I suspect that that bit will have to be left to you :) | 21:24 |
| kirkland | mdke: i can try to transfer it to you, or you can trust me to it ;-) | 21:24 |
| mdke | as long as you're willing, then I'm more than happy :) | 21:24 |
| kirkland | mdke: nice, i think we're good then | 21:24 |
| mdke | great, thanks a lot | 21:24 |
| mdke | good luck with the dog, hope all goes well | 21:24 |
| kirkland | mdke: np. is it working? | 21:25 |
| mdke | I'll give it a shot later... | 21:25 |
| kirkland | mdke: thanks, he has a cut on the pad of his foot that hasn't healed in a couple of weeks | 21:25 |
| kirkland | k | 21:25 |
| mdke | kirkland: for later - http://doc.ubuntu.com/~mdke/search.html - getting there... | 21:58 |
