thanks, but i'm a little overwhelmed with everything that you wrote(!). i don't run my site in my own server, if that's what you're presuming (just in case).

how do i implement your code to my site (running on unix -- at dreamhost). does that mean i have to replace my search.cgi file? or is your script for the purpose of sort of caching the results to my system so that my current search.cgi will perform faster?

sorry for sounding stupid, i am not that good with perl/cgi. please tell me exactly what to do with the script that you offered. thanks for taking your time to help me out!!
