It still does. It installs as a Macromedia extension. There is a patch on
the
site that enables it to work with Dreamweaver MX.
Another search engine to try is Zoom Indexer by Wrensoft. It is a
JavaScript-based search engine, and it is fairly fast and easily
customizable. It is a stand-alone product, so you can use it with
Dreamweaver or any other HTML authoring tool.
