embperlObject + site search engine?

[Andre Landwehr <an...@gmx.net>]

Hi,
I'd like to use a search engine like htdig for local data since I
don't want to re-invent the wheel here and write a new one. But I
use EmbperlObject via mod_perl and of course I have my own
dynamic header/footer files. So what I have to do is call the
search program (which in case of htdig is CGI) and send it's
output through the EmbperlObject handler... is that somehow
possible? Or maybe I'm just thinking too complicated again and
there is a much simpler solution?

At the moment I only see the possibilty to run htdig from a Embperl page
instead directly as CGI, catch the output, maybe strip out what you don't
need and output it via Embperl.
