NAME

       WWW::Search::AltaVista::Intranet3 - class for searching via AltaVista Search Intranet 3.0

SYNOPSIS

	 use WWW::Search;
	 my $oSearch = new WWW::Search('AltaVista::Intranet3',
				       (_host => 'copper', _port => 9000),);
	 my $sQuery = WWW::Search::escape_query("+investment +club");
	 $oSearch->native_query($sQuery);
	 while (my $oResult = $oSearch->next_result())
	   { print $oResult->url, "
"; }

DESCRIPTION

       This class implements a search on AltaVista's Intranet ("AVI") Search.

       This class exports no public interface; all interaction should be done through WWW::Search objects.

NOTES

       If your query includes characters outside the 7-bit ascii, you must tell AVI how to interpret 8-bit characters.	Add an option for 'enc' to
       the native_query() call:

	 $oSearch->native_query(WWW::Search::escape_query('Zuerich'),
				{ 'enc' => 'iso88591'},
			       );

       Hopefully the correct values for various languages can be found in the AVI documentation (sorry, I haven't looked).

TESTING

       There is no standard built-in test mechanism for this module, because very few users of WWW::Search will have AVI installed on their
       intranet.  (How's that for an excuse? ;-)
