Welcome to the forum, danfeder. We're glad you could join us.

Regarding the first post thing, Charter (the forum owner/administrator) wanted to try and get more participation in the forums. Prior to the one-post rule, a lot of people registered in the forums and that's all. No posts, no nothing. If you can think of a better way to encourage people to get involved here, I'm sure Charter would be willing to listen.

Anyway, phpDig seems like a great search engine, I'm just trying to figure out if I can easily exclude whole groups of pages with a regexp or something - I have a huge site with lots of redundant links - print versions of lots of pages, stuff like that, and I don't want to get redudant results or have to exclude each one at a time.

Best,
Dan
Have a look at this thread. It will most likely answer all your questions.
