Introduction

Magazine Indexer

  • Magazine Indexer is for people with a large number of magazines or other periodicals who need to find articles or information from them without the need to manually scour each issue.
  • The program stores a catalogue of references to the magazine articles using a 3-level indexing system (written in 'embedded' JavaScript) that 'learns' as new items are added. How you organise these indexes is entirely up to yourself.
  • It has fast retrieval of information by several methods such as using an inbuilt index plus search by partial description, magazine and issue or any combination of these.
  • It is written in PHP and automatically creates any files and databases that it requires (provided it is using MySQL ;-).
  • It was designed to require the minimum number of keystrokes to enter information (mainly because I'm quite lazy and entering this stuff would be very time consuming otherwise).
  • The software is 'free' and is released under the GNU GPL (download the software for a copy of the license).
