Question

Scanning/searching text field for words?

I have a form that users can type in their question and that is used to
send a mail to members.

What I was thinking would be neat would be to have CF look at their
text, and based on certain words, suggest links, documents that might
answer their questions.

Has anyone done something like this? What's the best way to proceed?

    Hello Azadi,

    I'm not sure I want to index the entire site, which is what Verity would
    do in this case, correct? I'm just trying to have certain words be looked
    for, and send a list of links, documents....etc......

    Thanks...
