The SSSpider™ Query Execution Form
The Execution Form appears on screen when SSSpider starts executing one or several
queries (see also: how to run queries in
SSSpider Frequently Asked Questions). Click the form using the right
mouse button to access pop-up menus shown on the following picture:
The Query Execution form reflects the status of the search process in
three tabs:
The Execution Profile tab displays the download status per each
document or engine report that are being received. User can control
the download process by adjusting the time allowed to process the entire query
or a particular document, and also the overall number of documents to
be received during the query execution.
Apart from providing the possibility to make adjustments to the query options, this tab
also shows the Report Profile, which displays graphical representation
of the report being built. It shows relevance of quotations that have
already been found thus allowing you to estimate the overall search quality
of the report being built.
The Report Preview tab allows you to review the current status
of the final report. The user can edit it by removing some least relevant
quotations, visit particular pages, etc. Click this pane using the right
mouse button to see the full list of available options.
The tab Message Log displays documents that have been received
during the query executions and also, possible warning messages. It is recommended
that when SSSpider finishes executing queries, you look through the contents
of this tab: it might contain important information such as suggestions
to check a particular search engine, adjust your Internet settings, etc.
