Hello,



thanks for your help and sry for my late reply. 

I addeded 

Allow *.jpg *.png *.gif 

to the config file and activated the section url.file by adding

Section url.file 20 128

to my config file (section id = 20, i also changed the  max lenght from 0 to 128)



When I search for a filename I do not get any results. So I added a AlwaysFoundWord for debugging purposes. When i search for the "AlwaysFoundWord" i get all the results of my site - but no http://mydomain.com/xy.jpg" URL. It seams that the Images do not get indexed. 



When I start the indexer with the verbose level turned to 6, i get the following result. I am not sure, if i understand it right. But to me it seams like the URL(Image) gets found and accepted. But why does it not get indexed?



indexer[14040]: [14040]{01} Link 'imgs/youtube_1_borderless.png' http://mydomain.com/blog/imgs/youtube_1_borderless.png

indexer[14040]: [14040]{01}  Server applied: site_id: -801454983 URL: http://mydomain.com/blog/

indexer[14040]: [14040]{01} Allow End InSensitive '.png'



Does anybody know, why it doesn't work?

Is there really no change to search for the picture by alt tag?

Or is it possible to let the picture run trough an programm that extracts meta data from it and search for these meta data?



Regards



Dominik
