Author sort by metatag in index server

hello there,

I created an index server search tool for my website and
require to sort the metatag value in the search results.
I've read many articles on the MSDN and could not figure
out why the metatag value does not display. I did create
the columns and my program also generated the search page
with metatag name along with proper value.

I also set up the cached property for the column. Can
anyone tell me how to work around this problem??

Currently, my webserver is running in windows 2000
advanced server and using index server 2.0. Do i need to
install the HTML Filter (htmlprop.dll and htmlprop.ini
files)? Can anyone send me the compiled htmlprop.dll and
htmlprop .ini files and instruction to install them?

Source code:

objQuery.DefineColumn "publishing_date (DBTYPE_WSTR) =
= d1b5d3f0-c0b3-11cf-9a92-00a0c908dbf1 ""publishing_date"""

objQuery.Columns = "publishing_date, and someother
column..."

objQuery.sortby="publishing_date[d]"

My search page
<html><header>...
<Meta name="publishing_date" content="06/09/2004">
...


waiting for help desperatly...
Mindy

the metatag should display. download filtdump from the sdk and run your doc
through it to find out if IS will index it.

It there is a problem with the metatag, IS will not index it.

Then you should be using htmlprop.dll and htmlprop.ini to specify that your
metatag will be interpreted as a date instead of as a string.

On win2k the html ifilter ships with the os.

I'll send you the htmlprop.dll file offline.

Thank you for the quick response! I could not find the
download link of the filtdump.exe on
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?
url=/library/en-us/indexsrv/html/ixufilt_4gvn.asp page,
could you please provide me with the download link?

Thanks

you have to download the complete SDK to get it.

I'll send you a copy later.
