PhpDig.net - View Single Post - Totally Limiting Searches to a Particular Filetype

Thanks for the reply,

Neither of those have much to do with what my question is really about - I don't want to create thumbnails of indexed pages, I want to create the ability to have the search results return ONLY results that match the users search 'request' in the name of a specific filetype.

By this, I mean that if the file type that I (as site admin) choose to limit the search to is (for example) .avi and the user searches for "Cars" their results will be along the lines of "fast_cars.avi", racing_cars.avi", "cars.avi", "How_to_fix_cars.avi" etc

I apologise if I'm not making my request very clear and greatly appreciate your assistance.
