Issuing a Query Programmatically

You can use either POST or GET to issue the search query. The only required variables are pr (profile), query and dropXSL. Variables not specified in the query take default values.

Here is an example URL for a search.

http://HOSTNAME/texis/search/main.xml?dropXSL=1&pr=default &prox=page&rorder=500&rprox=500&rdfreq=500&rwfreq=500 &rlead=500&sufs=2&order=r&query=query

Where HOSTNAME is the IP/host of your Webinator, and query is the user's query.

Refer to Issuing a Query Programmatically 5.12.2 for definitions of the query variables.
