Below is a sample results' URL of the Perl search script I am using on my site: http://slangsearch.siteburg.com/cgi-bin/search.pl?query=word1+word2+word3&stpos=0&stype=AND#top What should be the syntax of the "Hilite.search_engines = [...]" parameter in the script so that it would work for my site? I tried the below setting, but it didn't work. Hilite.search_engines = [ [’^http://slangsearch.siteburg.com/cgi-bin/search.pl’,'query=’] ]; Please help. Dear Scott!

Below is a sample results’ URL of the Perl search script I am using on my site:

If you are just looking at the compression, then they are about the same but I did notice Packer implemented some optimisation like eliminating redundant semi-colons, at the risk of rendering the final script not executable. There can be more optimisation like rewriting local variables, consolidating literal strings, etc. I guess I picked Charles Foster's Javascript Cruncher because I need one <em>now</em>, without actually looking around. I am also thinking of writing a Javascript compressor/obfuscator that does compression on the fly in PHP. Packer does both compression and obfuscation, which is not really necessary.
