Mississippi Revised Statutes
The Mississippi Revised Statutes consists of 22666 laws, converted into
HTML from WordPerfect via perl.
The Mississippi legislature services names each statute appropriately
so a word search across just the titles is a good first step in determining
what the law says about an issue.
The application which creates the 22666 HTML files created a SINGLE file
containing:
- The statute number, e.g 1-5-17
- The statute Title, e.g. University law school to have books for exchange.
A CGI perl routine
is called as an action on the form tag which passes the query input line.
- Advantages
- Easy to implement, portable and fast.
- Dis-Advantages
- Application must be "segmentable" and the
single file must be created.
