<p>
XOWA has a search feature based on page title. It is used for the following:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
The url bar
</li>
<li>
The Search bar (next to <code>Read</code>, <code>Edit</code>, <code>View HTML</code>)
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The search feature is based off of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PageRank" rel="nofollow" class="external text">PageRank algorithm</a>. Because of the complicated, recursive nature of the algorithm, the index can only be run for the entire wiki at once -- not every time a page changes. For small wikis, search reindexing will complete in a few seconds. For a large wiki like en.wikipedia.org, it could take 12 hours.
