This weekend was a good weekend.
I could focus on fixing the old issues on Sedubai. many of the websites I used to crawl have been changed in style and format. So I fixed some of them again.
But instead of fixing old crawler I have to index new property lists. I promiss myself next weekend I'll do so.
The search page, the text box and drop down menus were just a mess. I don't know why I thought they work fine.
I fixed the price issue. In the text box if you type 2000 AED or AED 2000 still it will find it. it was just one way.
Dropdown lists are generating from database now.
The dictionary to check the spelling of search term will function better now.
Buy/Rent option is now added to the whole online and server side.
on the server side, now I can manage the different forms of the same thing easily.!!!
for example: JBR=Jumeirah Beach Residence= ....
I didn't have Type in the search process although I had it everywhere, Ouch! now fixed.
Now when you change something in the dropdown lists, it will automaticaly affect the search term.
What else?!

Things to do:
- Look and feel of the site, I don't like it.
- Still it doesn't query the location properly
- Buy / Rent from user still unrecognizable
- I think price has some problems too
- Should think about "million" entry too
- I have to consider unrecognizable keyword as a seperate text and use them in query
- More work on the administrative side
- And more sites to crawl
