dtSearch Spider is a dtSearch Desktop, Network, Web and Engine feature that extends a “local” search to a remote Web site.
Operating through dtSearch Web, the Spider can expand the scope of the searchable database beyond a site’s own data to content on a third-party Web site.
Operating through dtSearch Desktop and dtSearch Network, the Spider can expand the scope of the searchable database beyond a local or local area network database to Web site content.
The dtSearch Engine makes available a .NET Spider API (including native .NET current versions support and a native 64-bit version), providing access to full dtSearch Spider functionality.
Spider Features
The Spider can index and search publicly available sites, secure content HTTPS sites, and password-accessible sites. The Spider also supports forms-based authentication.
A single search request can return fully-integrated search results, spanning local and remote content, including:
 
hit-highlighted display of Web-ready file types such as HTML, PDF and XML, including display of images, formatting and links.
conversion of other file types (“Office,” Unicode, ZIP, etc.) to HTML for browser display with highlighted hits.
support for dynamically-generated content (ASP.NET, MS CMS, SharePoint, etc.) with highlighted hits.
The Spider can perform “vertical” searching of pages linked from a URL, as well as "horizontal" crawling of sites linked to a URL.
The Spider can limit indexed data by file size, file number, time on a Web site, etc.
