Yes, it’s possible but it may be not very fast.

You could open a lotusscript agent from web which does the search and results in a document collection. Then you can display

the documents creating your own result page by printing html.

Thanks for your suggestion. I have another problem. If i would to let users to do a fulltext search from the web and would like exclude some of the fields for searching, is that possible? Something like dont include certain fields into the fulltext index. Thanks

the only way to exclude fields from fulltext index is to encrypt them, I’m not sure if you will like this.

Nevertheless you could build your own search request by specifying, which fields to search by

… FIELD abc CONTAINS “test” or FIELD… in the URL.

So you could give the users a customized search which simply searches only some fields. But this is not a security feature, a user who knows how to build such an URL to search the whole view and all fields in the docs is still able to do it by typing the URL directly.
