[Mediawiki-l] Google Site search

[Tom Preuss]

Colin,

See 
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2005-November/008222.html 
and 
http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2005-December/008716.html 
for different ways to implement what you are looking for.

Also, 
http://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Ahttp%3A%2F%2Fmail.wikipedia.org%2Fpipermail%2Fmediawiki-l%2F+%22google+search%22& 
might be of some use for further options.  :P

Best regards,

Tom Preuss
