Abstract
The systems and methods described herein allow a user to perform localized searching from a standard web browser. In particular, the systems and methods of this invention use a two-prong approach to accomplish both a dynamic breadth-first crawl search and a contextualize index search to generate search results. The search results are then assembled in a unified results page and displayed to a user.
