I need a web application that can parse a text box for keywords and then compare the keywords against a data/article base. Then output a sorted list of link's to articles based upon keyword relevancy.
1) User types into a say 1,000 char text box anything they want. For example "My Honda civic is sluggish and blows black smoke out of the exhaust" Then the user presses 'submit'
2) The program will parse the user input. In this case "My Honda civic is sluggish and blows black smoke out of the exhaust" And make a list of all keywords besides omitted words, such as 'the, is, it,out' etc. I would like to have a modifiable list of words that are omitted.
3) The program will then parse and then match the user submitted keywords against local list of articles or a database. Then display an output of links based upon how relevant the articles are to the user input.
For example, if you type "My Honda civic is sluggish and blows black smoke out of the exhaust" the program will give you a list of links, links to articles containing the most relevant article. In this case, an article containing the words:
'Honda,civic,sluggish,black,smoke,exhaust'
And that is it in a nut-shell, Ways to improve/submit articles and control the output and see what users are typing in are also desired, but I would like to prove the concept first.
